This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the

PREFACE.
Solomon said, that to the " making of many books
there is no end." So we may readily conclude that, till
the end of the world, we will not come to the end of
making books.
We live in an age of progress ; and in nothing is
it more distinctly marked than its facilities for impart-
ing knowledge through the Printing Press. This
mighty enginery exerts a most controlling influence
upon the political, literary, moral and commercial in-
terests of the world. In this light, much responsibility
attaches to the making of books.
The following work is intended for the Professional
and Business Public — a class of men large, respecta-
ble and important to the welfare and prosperity of the
country. The question has often been asked, "can a
merchant, lawyer or doctor, be a good man — an honest
man — a christian ?"
Such a question has its foundation either in igno-
rance or depravity. There can be nothing in these
highly important and responsible relations of society,
incompatible with the strictest probity and purity.
Intrigue and quackery may, for a time, delude the ig-
PRKFAOB.
norant and credulous, but they never fail, in the end, to
bring shame and odium upon themselves.
Honesty and industry never fail to bring their appro-
priate rewards — prosperity and happiness. Integrity
in trade will secure uniformity in per centage. Thus
the links of trade being equal and uniform, each will
be alike strong and productive of good to the whole.
The object of this work is to afford convenience and
facility in the transaction of business. As a medium
of reference^ correspondence, and heal and general ad-
vertising^ it is eminently calculated to subserve the in-
terests of trade. It is an Office Book. A single cor-
respondence, to hundreds of business men, may pay
them from " thirty to sixty and an hundred fold " its
cost.
The magnitude of the work, the extent of territory
it embraces, the great desire to make it complete, to-
gether with some incidental delays, will be a sufficient
apology for its appearance a few weeks later than was
at first proposed. Some of our correspondents hesitated
to make their returns, on the ground that they might
be held responsible for the solvency and good standing
of those reported.
This is not so. The Author, nor any of his agents
or correspondents, assumes the responsibility of giv-
ing the standing of names. No distinction as to first,
second or third class of dealers, by even a prwate
marh^ will be admitted. The only distinction will
appear in the cards or advertisements, given by our
subscribers themselves.
PRXTAOK.
All that our patrons ask, is a full and correct list
of Dealers in every county, parish, district, town, vil-
lage, station and cross-road in the States included in
the work. Such works have been published for the
States in the East, North and West, and they are of
great convenience and utility to the business public.
Such a work, for the rich and growing South, must be
at least equally useful. Notwithstanding the immense
travel, labor and expense of getting up this work, the
Author sees wherein a longer time and more experi-
ence would have made it more satisfactory. This he
will have opportunity to do in the next Volume.
He will send copies of this Volume to subscribers,
ag^ents and clerks of courts in all the counties of the
States included. This will show them what v/e want
more fully, and enable them to make their returns
more readily and correctly for the Second Volume.
Two things are of the utmost importance in a work
like this, namely : the correct spelling and plain wri-
tmg of names.
For the polite attention of clerks of courta and
agents, to whom copies of his prospectus were sent,
the Author is devoutly thankful. To his subscribers,
also, he owes a debt of gratitude which (although lan-
guage cannot express) he will endeavor to liquidate by
unremitting zeal and labor to serve their best interest
The very lanje subscriptions obtained in so short a
time, afford unquestionable evidence of the demand for
such a work.
The Author, fully aware of the criticisms usually
PREFACE.
passed upon all such publications, does not expect his
to escape. He will endeavor to bear all this, however,
with his usual patience and good humor. He is, also,
aware that no publication is so liable to mistakes, as a
book of proper names. Names are arbitrary things.
Each name being independent, affords neither key nor
clue to the correctness or incorrectness of others. In
ordinary book-making, each subject or idea leads to
and explains the one that follows or precedes it. It is
not so in compiling a directory of names. The labor
in this is more physical than mental.
If our patrons will each procure one more subscri-
ber for the next Volume, it will have a circulation of
more than 10,000. There will be a standing commis-
sion of one dollar for each new subscriber ; and all our
subscribers are authorized agents.
The wider the circulation the better for each whose
card is inserted. Does not each one see that, by the
joint and efficient co-operation of clerks of courts,
agents and subscribers, we can furnish one of the larg-
est and most valuable mediums of reference and ad-
vertising in the world ? It will be our object to estab-
lish permanently, and issue regularly.
See Prospectus for the next Volume, at the close of
this.
To his kind Patrons and the liberal Business Public,
this Volume is most respectfully dedicated.
JOHN P. CAMPBELL,
Editor and Proprietor.
STATE OF ALABAMA.
This State has an area of 60,722 square miles. Population in 1850,
771,660. Cotton is tbe staple, of which its production is over half a
million of bales. It has every variety of soil and productions. Many
of the counties are very rich, and some very poor ; but even the poorer
may soon be rich by developing their mineral wealth, of which there is
a vast amount in the North-Eastern portions of the State.
These will soon be reached by Bailroads, which it is certainly to the
interest of the State to aid. The Mobile and Ohio Railroad is the most
important in the State, and is in rapid progress of bailding. The Rail-
road from Montgomery to West Point is now finished, connecting the
capital of the State with the South Atlantic and Northern cities. The
Alabama river, one of the most beautiful in the South, and the safest
for navigation, has a daily line of splendid mail and passenger steamers
plying between Montgomery and Mobile, and there connecting with the
daily line of steamers to New-Orleans.
There are in this State 12,137,681 acr€s of land — improved, 4,436,-
614 acres ; unimproved 7,702,067 acres. Bale» of cotton, 664 42^ ;
Indian com, bushels, 28,754,048 ; hogsheads sugar, 8,242 ; molasses,
gallons, 83,428. Population, total 771,650 ; ministers of the gospel
702 ; lawyers 570 ; physicians 1,264 ; merchants 2,468. The above
is for 1860.
MoNTGOMERF succecdcd Tuskaloosa as the capital of the State in
1847, since which time its growth has been very rapid. In 1840 it had
a population of little over 2,000. Now it has a population of about
7,000. Its central position in the State, and being at the head of steam-
boat navigation, together with its late Railroad connections, makes it a
point of heavy cotton and other trade. Its churches and public build-
ings are large and handsome. Its iron, wood and other manufactories,
are large, and creditable for so young a city. A high school for young
ladies, under the paternity of Rev. Samuel E. Norton and lady, is do-
ing well, and is justly an object of pride and interest to the city and
country. The Exchange Hotel is a large and well kept establishment,
for which we cordially ask the patronage of the public. We also call
attention to the Business Cards inserted in this work, and tender thanks
for so liberal a subscription to it (about 100). Maythe sunshine of
prosperity shed its benignant smiles long and unclouded upon this beau-
tiful city. The following is our showing for Montgomery :

MOBILE,
Thikty miles north of the Gulf of Mexico, on Mobile Bay, 160
miles east of New-Orleans, and 1,013 miles from Washington, is the
principal city and only port of entiy of Alabama. It occupies an ele-
vated plain, overlooking the pleasant bay, and is fanned by its breezes.
Fires have several times injured the city, but it has been re- built with
improved appearance and soliditv. From its position in the State, it is
the receptade of the commerce of Alabama. Vast quantities of cotton
are annually exported. The harbor is difficult of access, being ob-
structed by marshy islands and shoals, but within, deep and ppacious
enough for large vessels. These, by a circuit around an island, in front
of the city, anchor at its wharves. The entrance to the bay is defended
by a fortification and marked by a lighthouse. Good water, from a
neighboring source, is distributed over the city by iron pipes. Railroads
are in process of construction to connect the city with the Ohio river,
and also with the Atlantic States through Georgia. It has daily com-
munication, by steamboat, to Proctorsville, and thence, by railroad with
New-Orleans. There are a custom house, court house, hospitals, banks
and churches.
In 1813, the period when Mobile passed from the hands of Spain
into possession of the United States, it contained about 100 buildings.
In ISaO, the population was 3,194 ; in 1840, 12,672; in 1860, 20,613.
Now about 30,000,
We call attention to the Battle House, which from very pleasant ex-
perience we recommend as one of the first class hotels in the United
States. This House is an ornament to the city and worthy of its liberal
patronage. ^
J^' We invite attention to the cards of the city of Mobile. The
list for this city is the largest of any city represented in our book — an
indication that they are enterprising, liberal and fully up with the pro-
gress of the age.
See Appendix for any addrUonM or eorreetione for thie State.
STATE OF TENNESSEE.
The State of Tennessee embraces every variety of soil, frora tbe rich
alluvial of the Mississippi bottom to the high and grassy tables of the
Cumberland Mountains.
It abounds with never failing springs of lime, free stone and uvnt-
RAL WATERS. Nor IS it Jess rich and varied in its immense forests of
timber.
These, together with its inexhaustible fields of iron, copper, coal, etc.,
indicate that it is capable of supporting as dense a population as any
territory of equal extent in the world.
It has as yet scarcely commenced developing its vast resources. The
magnificent schemes of railroad companies. North and South, East and
West, seeking to penetrate its borders and meeting at its capital, point
tbe far-seeitig capitalist in no unmeaning language to Tennessee as one
of the most desirable spots on the continent.
The consummation of these stupendous railroads now under contract
and in rapid progress towards completion, will in a few years add qm
hundred per cent, to the population and wealth of Tennessee.
Here the manufacturer, by mere exchange of commodities with his
next door neighbor, can be supplied both with his raw materials and his
breadstuffs. Uere be occupies a central position between the Northern
and Southern markets. Here he will feel that he is in tbe centre of
the world, and that the weahh of every market is drawn by the law of
commerce to that centre.
This picture may ))e thought by some to be over-wrought — the aber-
rations of an exuberant fancy ; but it is not so. The position of Ten-
nessee— her elements of inexhaustible wealth — her climate — her rail-
roads— her rivers — her institutions — her enterprisinoj. citizens — all, more
than intimate the truthfulness of our picture.
The adoption of a system of popular education to which she is now
looking, and for which she has ampl^means, will place her moral equal
with her physical progress towards greatness. The number and char-
acter of her high schools for young ladies is not to be surpassed by any
State in the Union ; a most desirable trait in her character, than which
none is a truer element of greatness — than which none will more cer-
tainly lead to prosperity and happiness.
OBNSRAL OOHMEKGIAL ADVBRTISBR. 40
Her male colleges and high schools are not so numerous, but they
are quite sufficient to supply all the learned professions and give quite
a sprinkling of literature among our worthy farmers and mechanics.
Let the mothers, wives and daughters of any State be educated, and
general education will speedily follow as a result. Thus Tennessee has
taken the right start and will certainly reap in due time the desired
good fruit.

DAVIDSON COUNTY
Nashville, the capital of Tennessee, is a beautiful city, on the south
bank of the Cumberland river; population about 25,000.
Its growth in wealth and population has never been very rapid at
any time, yet it has had an even, onward progress in such physical and
moral wealth as forms the permanent basis of true greatness.
No city in the South is more justly celebrated for its intelligence,
morality, and courtesy to strangers. Its Sabbaths are quiet and orderly,
and its pulpits and churches well filled.
True, there is a good deal of attention to dress, pecsonal neatness
and polite deportment, but no such invidious distinctions as are some-
times created by wealth or^lace.
The subject of general education has never received that favor and
patronage which the State or City Council could and ought to have
aflforded, yet the zeal and public spirit of private individuals have suc-
ceeded in establishing a number of high schools of a character inferior
to none in the West and South. The medical department of the Nash-
ville university is in a flourishing condition — over 200 young gentlemen
OENBRAL COMMERCIAL ADTSRTISER. ' 53
of high promise are now prosecuting their studies successfuUj. The
professore are gentlemen of the highest order of talents and have the
ability and Jaudable ambition to place the institution on an equal foot-
ing with the very best in the United States. •
The Nashville female academy, under the presidency of Rev. 0. D.
Elliott, aided by «n able board of trustees, has over 350 young ladies.
This institution has been in successful operation about forty years (the
present incumbent eighteen years), during which tim<^ it has been
blessed with increasing prosperity and success. It baa sent out a greater
number of graduates who have taken high positions in society than any
institution west of the mountains. Its aparatus, boarding department,
board of teachers, beauty and healthfulness of location, will compare
favorably with any institution for young ladies in the United States.
Nashville, the State, the whole South may well be proud of such an
institution.
The Nashville ladies' college, under the presidency of Rev. Robert
A. Lapsley, D.D., stands deservedly high in the con6dence of th# public.
It occupies the spacious and beautiful apartments of the Masonic hall,
on Spring-st. Although it Las been but a few years in operation, it
combines all the advantages of a thorough course of classic, English and
ornamental education. It has about 170 young ladies — an able board
of teachers and an experienced president. A good boarding depart-
ment will place it in fevorable comparison with the best schools in the
country.
Prof. N. Cross <fe Son have charge of the ckssical school for young
men and boys. This high school supplies the place of the Nashville
university, which is suspended until new and magnificent buildings are
erected — which will soon be completed.
The home of industry, for poor girls, under the supervision of an
"^ excellent and benevolent lady, is doing much good and is an object of
interest to the city.
The orphan asylum (Protestant), under the supervieion of Mrs. Mary
A. Powel — Miss M. E. Sykes, teacher — is indeed what its name indi-
cates, and commends its,elf to the charity and confidence of the public.
Many other private schools are in successful operation — scattering light
and blessing in the city.
Perhaps no city of its size has as many nevropapers as Nashville.
There are six dailies, six tri -weeklies, nine weeklies and six monthlies,
all well read and well sustained.
. Within a few years a number of manufactories and machine shops
have been established upon a basis of capital and experience, which
have always rewarded the enterprising projectors. Manufacturers and
capitalists from abroad are looking to Nashville as admirably suited for
a manufacturing city. Why not ? It is surrounded by extensive tracts
of rich and never-failing lands, capable of supplying any market in the
world. It is now connected by railroad with Charleston, S. C, and
Savannah, Ga. ; both wealthy commercial and importing cities. It will
soon be connected with inexhaustible fields of iron and coal. It is a
54 ^ SOUTHERN BUSINESS DIBECTORT AND
point wbeire cotton, tobacco, hemp, grain and stock growers all meet to
negotiate their sales. The country around is unsurpassed in beauty,
wealth -and loveliness. Nashville is not surpassed in beauty and health-
fulness by any city. Every intelligent visitor, as well as every intelli-
gent citizen, augers for it a glorious destiny.
The state capital, now nearly completed, is one of the most magnifi-
cent buildings in the United States. It occupies a beautiful eminence
which commands an extensive view of the country ten or twelve miles
in every direction. From this point you may count the beautiful resi-
dences and public buildings of the city — south Nashville on the south
and Edgefield on the east, with their handsome gardens ; the view of
the Cumberland river; the wire suspension bridge; the horticultu-
ral garden ; the «white sulpher springs ; the Buenavista springs ; the
state prison ; the railroad depots ; the university and medical college
buildings. Then if you lift up your eyes and look over the rich farms,
extensive gardens and princely mansions of the surrounding country,
you will feel what words cannot utter. You will say that God has
blessed this rich and beautiful city and country.
Here, if the hands of industry, art and education do their propor-
tional part with the hand of nature, will be seen in fifty years one of
the most lovely spots on the globe.
Nashville being the county seat and capitol of the State, nearly all
the trade of the county is done here. An apology for the small num*
ber of cards in this work at Nashville is, that we published over 200 for
this place in a Directory for Tennessee last year, and, therefore, did not
make a canvas for this work. We call attention with pleasure to those
inserted in this work.
J5^ Attention is invited to the card of Allison, Anderson <k Co.
We had the pleasure of looking through their rooms, four in number,
160 feet deep and 26 feet wide, with the best ventilation and lights of
any house we have seen in Nashville.
The opening of this new wholesale house is an acquisition to the
city. Having long and successful experience in the trade, and ample
cftpital, we have the utmost confidence in their success.
L. B. Fite <k Co., No. 9 N. College-street, are cordially commended
as a first rate wholesale house. Their acknowledged reputation for
politeness and faii; dealing is fully sustained in their new establishment
and is bringing them a heavy trade, jt^ See their card.
J^r See the card also of R. S. Snell, No. 16 Public square, successor
to E. B. Garrett.
Mr. Snell showed us through his fine stock of boots, shoes, <bc., which
he offers at wholesale and retail on very accommodating terms. So bng
and favorably known in the city and country, we take great pleasure in
recommending him to the trade.
J^ See the card of Hicks <fe Darden. The late union of these
gentlemen in trade makes a strong house. Gentlemen long and favor-
ably knowrn must succeed.

See, Board of Trustees,
NASHVILLE. FEMALE ACADEMY,
FOUNDED IN 1816.
DAY SCHOOL.
LOCATION. ^
About seven acres in the western part of the city — well enclosed —
and in rpgar^d to privacy, shade, fresh air, good water and health, equal
to any situation in the country, yet enjoying every advantage furnished
by the city. Parents in the crowded parts of the city might well afford
to pay our tuition bills, for the health and cheerfulness secured to their
daughters by spending the day within such an enclosure.
BUILDINGS.
Their plain and unornamented front, gives but little promise of either
the extent or comfortableness of the arrangements in the rear. In every
department of Education, I am assured by gentlemen who ought to
know, that in regard both to heallhfulness and convenience, they are not
surpassed elsewhere in the United States.
NOT SECTARIAN.
Trustees, Teachers and Parents, belong indifferentiy to any of the re-
ligious denominations of our city. Young ladies of the boarding family,
go to the church chosen \>j their parents, always attended by their
teachers. So well known is this characteristic of the Academy, that we
suppose no reliable individual could be found in our community even
inclined to doubt it.
EXAMINATIONS, ^0. •
We shall hereafter dispense with all examinations either in public or
in presence of parents, except thosis in connection with the "Fine Arts,'*
and the graduation of tlie Senior Class, and these we shall endeavor to
render more interesting and instructive Jto those who may be admitted to
them. p
Parents are urgentiy invited to attend any daily exercise of the Aca-
demy, during the Session, and also to examine their daughters at home.
On this plan we think we can make better scholars, and we know, that
by rendering the Academy still more private, we can exert a better influ-
ence in preparing our pupils for the station in life they are destined to
occupy.
70 SOUTHERN BUSINESS DIRECTORY AND
COURSE OE STUDY.
Our " Couree of Study" remains unchanged. The education of boys
and girls should be just as diflferent as are the duties and responsibilities
of the one sex difFerenJ from the other.
Few and abridged text books — not more than two substantial studies
at one time — elementary studies reviewed each year, and from one to
two years longer than is usually required to graduate, still remain prac-
tical evidence oi our idea of raising the standard of Education for Fe-
males.
DEPARTMENTS.
Freparatory^Dbpaktment. — For children under 10 years of age.
Academic Department. — Includes four classes. Pupils remain in
each class one year — and during that year, taught by one Teacher.
Collegiate Department. — Four classes — Freshman, Sophomore,
Junior and Senior. This Department is taught by a CoZ/e^c of Teach-
ers, and all its exercises are conducted with as much regularity as in any
College for boys in the United States. We are pleased with the title,
** Old Academy," yet might easily vindicate our claim, not only to Col-
lege, but even University, if we saw proper to change.
FINE ARTS.
Composition, Music, Painting in Oil, Drawing and Embroidery.
In regard to Teachers of the above, and Instruments, Rooms, <fec., we
have made extensive and costly preparations.
The first annual exhibition in our Exercise Hall, excited no little in-
terest among the refined and intelligent citizens of Nashville. A Com-
mittee of gentleman amateurs have provided a more judicious and liberal
system of prizes than our last, for our next annual exhibition, June 26,
1864, which will soon be made public.
BOARDING SCHOOL.
HEALTH.
As the result of our location, well ventilated buildings, judicious use
of fires, wholesome diet, regular habits and maternal care, the health of
the boarding-house family is unequalled, it is believed, by any similar
establishment in the United States. But two deaths of young ladies
have occurred here in a period of nearly forty years ; and not one case a
year of alarming sickness in a family of about one hundred white per-
sons; and of the hundreds who hgve been here, in not more than three
cases, have young ladies gone hqpiQ in other than improved health.
MATERNAL CARE.
Some idea may be formed of what we mean by maternal care, when
it is known that it cost me nearly $3,000 annually, over and above the
ordinary expenses of a boarding house to secure this for the mem bora of
the boarding house family. Mothers may be more anxious ; but there are
GENERAL COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER. 71
few, if any mothers, in this country ,'who are more faithful, skillful and con-
stant in their attention to children, than are all the acknowledged teach-
ers of the Academy. For nothing have I been so unjustly and severely
censured as for the manner in which I have dispensed with the services
of all teachers proved to be incompetent to discharge these most impor-
tant duties,
I am persuaded that in our city, with all its intelligence and refinement,
there are no young ladies who rt»ceive from their own mothers, wiser or
more effectual care in all that relates to purity of heart, health of body, im-
provement of manners, and propriety of deportment, than do the mem-
bers of my family from those faithful and experienced teachers, who
have for years been associated with me in the Academy.
PHYSICAL EXERCISES.
In this department each class is permitted to go once a day, &s to a
regular recitation. The large and airy room in which it is conducted,
is furnished with all the appurtenances of a regular gymnasenm for
females.
The result of the last year, viz : forms more erect and better developed,
improved gracefulness in njotion, and elasticity of step, cheerfulness of
spirits, and vigor of health, clearly show the importance of this branch
of female education. We again invite the attention of our friends to this
recent improvement in the Academy.
SOME OF THE GENERAL RULES.
No young lady leaves our lot unattended by a teacher ; expends one
dime without our approbation — is permitted to have an account in the
city ; receives any company but relatives, and not those during school
hours, or on the Sabbath when it can be avoided ; will be permitted to
receive eatables even from their parents ; receives or sends messages of
any kind, through the day scholars ; is allowed more than ^ve dollars,
unless deposited with me; is permitted to associate with any other
school-girls who attend promiscuous dancing schools, parties, pic-nics,
fishing parties, <fec. We cannot educate, either in our Boarding or Day
School, pupils who are allowed by their parents to be " half-way Young
Ladies:'
EXPENSES.
Parents will find that it costs but little more to educate a daughter in
Nashville, with all advantages, than in smaller towns— indeed no more
than it does where they are allowed any Rberty as to their store accounts,
Nashmlle may he an extravagant city, but the Nashville Academy
is not an extravagant Boarding School,

KNOX COUNTY.
Enoxville, the county seat is one of the oldest towtis in the State.
The first meetings of the State Legislature were held here. For maoj
years it was the largest town in the State. The removal of the capi-
tal and the openings of trade West and South, caused a decline for sev-
eral years. Within the last few years it has taken a pew start in im-
provements^ of every sort. Old bouses are taken away and new ones
built. The corporate limits are greatly extended and its population and
business nearly doubled in the last ten years. It looks now like a
young city, and has a population of about 6000. If any on& asks what
has given this new and life-like appearance to Enoxville, so loBg locked
up ii)|the mountains, the yiswer is, the whistle of the Locomotive has
waked her up. Instead of being almost " no where at all,'' as she sup-
posed, for many years, she suddenly wakes up and finds herself at the
'* Great Crossing," where " all the world and the rest of mankind" are
coming.
Her connections with the great Railroads South East, South West,
North East and North West, now in rapid progress towards completion,
together with the development of the immense Agricultural and Mineial
wealth in her vicinity, can leave no doubt in reference to her future
prospects of wealth and greatness.
We make this hasty tribute to Enoxville, regretting at the same time
that it was not made by some abler pen. Uer mountain winds first
fanned our baby cheeks, nor are- they less s^eet and pure on every re-
turning visit. M^y her growing churches, schools and benevolent or -
^ders, keep pace with her growing wealth and increasing population. The
following are the principal business*firms in Enoxville :

MONTGOMERY COUNTY.
Gross population 21,045 ; voting population 2,650 ; taxable property
$600,000.
Clarkbville, the county seat, is a flourishing and beautiful town, on
the North bank of the Cumberland River, 40 miles below Nashville —
population 3500. Annual revenue $10,000. Necessary expences $2000.
It has a very respectabl.e number of High Schools, Churches, Ma-
sonic, Odd Fellows and Temperance Ordt'rs. In morality, intelligence,
T?ealth and public enterprise, Clarksville compares favorably with any
town of its size in the State.
Rev. Mr. Irvin's High School for young ladies, is well established, well
deserving and most cordially recommended. So is the Masonic College,
established by the Grand Lodge of the State, worthy of all commenda-
tion. The edifice is very large and beautiful — the Board of Teachers
and Trustees able, efficient and enterprising. This College, under the
paternity of the Order — the distinctive features of which are charity,
benevolence and universal fraternity — must succeed well.
The commercial prospects of Clarksville are not less worthy of a flat-
tering notice. It has the largest Tobacco and Pork trade' of any town of
its size in the South. It copomands the trade of a wealthy district of
South Kentucky, which, together with the productions and wealth of
the surrounding country, cannot fail to make it a flourishing commercial
city. Then, there are new channels of trade o^nipg to her market by
turnpikes and Railroads, which will add at least one hundred fold to her
wealth.

STATE OF ARKANSAS.
Has 2,698,214 acres of land, of which 781,530 only are in a state of
improvement, leaving 1,816,684 in their wild and natural state. Many
of these lands are very rich and productive. This State hn^ n soil and
climate adapted to the production of cotton, corn, hemp, toltacco, Bmall
grain, fruits and grasses of every kind, peculiar to the North and South.
The Bowie-Knife, (alias, "Arkansas Tooth Pick,") and the lawless
banditi, that in early times held despotic sway, spreading friglit and
confusion among the early settlers, have within the last few ycara emi-
grated, some to California, some to New Mexico, and some to '" Tophet^
ordained of old."
It is difficult for the traveller, and even the old settlers of this State,
to realize, that in a few years, so great a moral change should come
over the spirit of their dreams. "Extremes beget extremes." When
crime has reached a certain point, it reproves itself, and becomes in part
its own remedy, as it is its own punister.
The pleadings of religion and virtue, under such circumstances, come
with a sweet and welcome voice, and gain an easy triumph. At this
time, the educational, moral and commercial prospects of this State, are
rolling up with a light that delights the eye.
In this State are extensive beds of iron, coal and other valuable mine-
rals. They will soon be reached by Rail-Roads which are now in pro-
gress, and promise to span the State. Success to this young and grow-
ing State. '

amount of taxable property in this county, last June, was 11,176,000
being about $2350 to each voter. The actual valae, however, of the

not the least donbt but that at a/a»r cash value, it is worth $3,525,000.
There is one Newspaper, entitled the " New Madrid Times," John C.

STATE OF TEXAS.
Thb State of Texas has the large amount of 1 1 ,398,337 acres of land ;
of this amount 639,117 acres only are improved, leaving 10,759,220
acres unimproved. Population in 1850, 212,592; Number of Cotton
Bales in 1850, 57,596; Number of hhds. of Sugar in 1850, 7,851 ;
Number of gallons of Molasses in 1850, 441,638. All these figures
may now be doubled.
Ministers, 308 ; Attomies, 428 ; Merchants, 985 ; Physicians; 616.
The liberal grants of the State tb Railroads and other schemes of
Internal Improvement cannot fail to enrich her treasury as well as her
people.
The immense bodies of rich and productive lands, together with
the'rapid increase of her enterprising population, must indicate a high
destiny for Texas, and that very soon. We regret that we may not be
able in this volume to give as full a representation of her commercial
interests as we desired. This we .shall have time and means to siccom-
plish in our next number. The tardiness and uncertainty of the mails
is no doubt the principal cause of our defective list from Texas.

good) emigrants do not stop to look, and therefore there are but few
settlers.

STATE OF FLORIDA.
/
Thk State of Florida has an area of 2,195,298 acres of land, of which
IB 1 860 only 8,490,49 Acres were brought into cultivation. At the
fianrie date her population was 4^i, 1 35
Florid* has a rnild**and delightful climate. Her forests of timber,
tropical frails, fish and game, .her tiue gulf ii|irb<)rs,' navigable rivers and
iMantifalJakes of water, together with tlie prod uetionn of Sugar, Ciittrm
Bice, &c., to which her soil and climate are so admirab^ adapted, must
draw capital and produce great wealth in a few years. In addition to
the navigation of her rivers, which connects her with the gulf trade, a
Railroad is now in progress which will soon connect her with the South
Atlantic cities and the cities of the North. The terminus of this Rail-
road at any one of her commo<liotts harbors, will give her a city v^hich
must grownup in a few years to rival other S«>ii4herii cities. There are as
yet but few merchants in that State. The following is the best showing

STATE OF MISSISSIPPI.
The State of Mississippi has been the theatre of more, reckless specu-
lation of every kind, and consequently of more aid greater reverses th;iB
any State in the Union. Men have made and lost targe fortunles to
quicker time than any where else. This state of things has now passed
away. A new class of citizens now cultivnte her rich cotton lands.
A new and more prudent class of merchants regulate her commerce, so
that now, both planters and merchants ure prosperobss ^nd are growing
rich. •
The credit of the State, which had suff*»red in common with many of
Iier noblest citizens, is greatly recovered ; and will soon stand redeemed.
No State in the Union has the elements of greater wealth than Miosis-
Bippi. She has many flourishing schools and churehes, the largest ^f
ivhich are at Oxford, Holly Springs, Columbus; Aberdeen, Sharon,
Jackson, Woodville, Natchez and Port Gibson. Mabonry and Odd

140 SOUTHERN BU8IMB8S DIBXOTOBT AND
ADAMS COUNTY.
* Natchez. — ^Thii* ciijy within the last five years, has improved very
rapidly, chiefly owing to its facilities for edacation. Considerable quan-
tities of cotton are brought from the interior for reshipment to New Or*
leans, it being one of the largest shipping points on the river. Tha
streets are regularly laid out, running at right angles, lined with beau-
tiful trees on both sides. Added to this is a fine promenade and park
on the bluff, commanding a view of the river for miles both up and down.
This city is bound to be one of great importance, connected as it will be
by Plank and Rail-Roads with every important point in the interior of
Mississippi and Louisiana, added to being a large shipping port.

BOLIVAR COUNTY.
The population of county in 1837, was 249 free whites; 697 slaves.
In 1853, 146 free whita voters; 2,607 taxable slaves.
The country extending from the 33° of north latitude to the B6°, was,
until a very few years'^ast, with the exception of the county of Wash-
ington, a wilderness. The donation of the State by the General Go-
Temm^nt, of all the swamp lands, has made a material change. Upon
it has been built the present level system, presenting a continuous line
of defence against the Mississippi; and preventing the desolation of one
of the most fertile portions of the habitable globe.
It is onlv within the past few years that public attention h^s been di-
rected to this particular portion of country, but so great has been the
advantages held out, that there has seldom been seen a greater emigra-
tion.
The advantages of education are limited. There are several small
schools, which are poorly attended, owing to the sparseness of the popu-
lation and the distance between plantations. Those who have several
children, generally have a governness. There is no particular church
upheld, but latterly, there has been a sermon preached by an itinerant
minister of the Metiiodist faith. There are no merchants, as the plan-
ter generally supplies himself by the year in New Orleans ; bift there
are small boats fitted up as stores, and float from place to place, thus
supplying the plantations with smaller articles. There are no lawyers,
but simply county officers; Litigation is small and cases unimportant.
There are several physicians of good ordinary ability.

HANCOCK COUNTY.
This county is rather sparsely populated, it being principally, a stock
growing county, together with timber, pitch, tar and turpentine, which
are the principal exports. There are but four^ towns in this county of
any note, viz: Gainesville^ f " " "
ton and Napoleon,
immediately upon the !
visited in the summer. The other three towns lie on Pearl River,
which is navigable at all seasons at either point. In Gainsville there
are two 8chook, and a Masonic Lodge ; the lower part of its hall is set
apart for preaching and a School. One Steam Saw Mil), at which is
cut an immense amount of Ijimber.- Ooe Coopier Shop. A steamboat
runs regularly between this place and New Orleans, making her average
trips in about seven hours, stopping at' Napoleon and Pearlington. In
Pearlington is one store and two iSte£«n Saw Mills ; the prospect of the
New Orleans and Mobile Railroad running through it, has given a spur
to its improvements. Sail vessels do a good business there. There is a
flourishing School in Pearlington. Napoleon is on the decline. No
physician resides in Gainsville, nor is there a lawyer, which speaks well
for health and pocket. , '

LOWNDES COUNTY.
Lowndes county is situated in the north-eastern portion of the State.
The Tombigby River flows through it from N! E. to S. W. dividing it
about equally.
The Western portion is principally prairie^ The Eastern, sandy land.
The Eastern portion was settled first, and is the most populous.
The town of Columbus is in the centre; Caledonia and Cork in the
N. E.; Plymouth, Colbert, Barton, Waverly and Wastport on the west
side of the Tombigby Biver, and Nashville on the East side of the
river below Columbus. Crawfordsville is in the S. W. portion of the
county.
The Tombigbee is the principal river of the county, passing through
it south-eastwardly into Alabama. It b navigable for steam boats sev-
eral months in the year 1 60 miles above Columbus. Its largest tributa-
ries in Lowndes on the east side are the Buttahatchee or 'Tretty River''
and Luxapellila or ^'Floating Turtle'* both rising in Alabama, and flo<9r»
ing a south-western course about 75 miles.
The former for several miles in Uie northern boundary of the county,
is a beautiful stream. . The Luxapellila reaches the Toiiib%bee about
three I^ile6 south of Coluoibus. Xi'^ OcUbbeha, of nearly the same mn^
flows into the Tombigbee from the west. The two last mentioned rivers
may easily be rendered navigable a considerable distance in time of high
water. AH these streams abound in fish.
They have many tributary creeks, affording numerous sites for grist
and saw-mills. ^
In consequence of the sale of the Choctaw and Chickasaw lands in
this county, it has increased rapidly in population and wealth within a
few ye^rs. The **Military" in connection with the **ilobiuson Road'* is
the great highway through it from north-east to south-west; at certain
seasons it is thronged with emigrants and traielLers,
Some straggling settlements were made in Lowndes aa early as 1817.
The first court was held in Columbus in 1830. The country between
the Tombigbee and the J31ack Warrior wa^ ft» ^*Neu.tral Oround," be-
tween the Choctaws and Creeks. Few trajces remain qf its former pps-
sessprSy. except certain mounds in the southern p^rt di the county. By
wnom and for what purposes they were thrown up, is unknown. Pro-
bably by a people who inhabited the country before the present race of
Indians. The Choctaws have a tradition that their Fathers emigrated
westwardly till they came to this, the goodliest land they had ever
seen; that being determined to possess it they waged desperate war with
the occupant tr\be; and at last in a dreadful battle defeated and extermi-
ifat^d them, glutting their tomahawks" with slaughter. The Oktibbeha
or "Fighting Water," was the boundary between the Cihoctaws and
Ohickasaws, and its banks were often the 6cene qf fierce and deadly con-
flicts. .Indeed, every hill, every dale, e\ery streani. has a story of
thrilling interest— but alas ! we read it not. ^ All the wttd and wohder-
fal history of this region is shrouded by the 'pall of age^. In vain does
imafftnatibn on airy wings explcyre the gloom profound J tbr nearly
six tnotisand years (he sun has risen and set upon this land; here flowers
have bloomed and faded ; fores^«s towerisd a6d fallen; summer and win-
ter, spring and autumn reigned in all th^ir loveliness and sublimiiy.
Sl)c ^thousand yeard these* beautiful streams have wandered amid flowers
and foliagie, by lofty upland, and by winding *tale, and prairie wild, tta-
seen, perhaps, by mortal eye; perhaps the residence of powerful nations.
W^ scan but a little part 6f the mighty past. * We know, indeed, that
for many a year through these groves, *the stoic of the woods— the man
without a tear," pursued the' deer frt>m morn till evening; on these
stream^* propelled the light canoe; here commemorated the exploits of
the chase or returning from successful wairv celebrated' the feast, the
song, the ftance; here suspended the scalps of slanghtered foes; here
Itefied the fimeral pyre of captivewarriors, and =**gciiined horribly' a
ghaiMy smile," at.their expiring' agonies. The white man eame^ and;
the Indian vanished as a sullen thttoder^loiid before the rising sim^ He
is gone from the stream, the wood astdit^efipniiirie; ,hia 'dpm^

each other at right angles, '^nd is a beautiful and flourishing place.
Within a few years, in consequence of sale of the adjacent Indian landa,
and the ^reat emigration to the surrounding country, it has advanced
rapidly in populanon and wealth.
It contains near 4000 itababitants, has 6 churches, a fine County
Court House, a large Town Hall, a Masdnio, Odd-Fellows, and Sons of
Temperance Hall, 8 Printing Offices, 2 Fire Enginies, 1 Hook and Lad-
der Company, 2 Masonic Lodges, 1 Royal Arch Chapter, 2 Odd Fel-
lows Lodges, and 1 Eneampine&t, and 1 Divispion of the Sons of
Temperance.
The various mechanical trades and 'learned professions, are numer-
ously represented, and two finely equipped MiKtary Companies in tibe
town, with their soul stirring music, enlivens the dull and piping times of
peacd.
The town is well supplied with Institutes and Schools, under the su-
perintendence of able teachers for both sexes. Columbus being built
upon the sixteenth section, the income arising from the leases of lots,
amounting to some $3;000 annually, is appropriated to the support of
the Franklin Academy, where tuition is free to all the childfen and
youth of the township.
FIB8T SBTTLEMSNT OF COLVlfBUe.
. In the latter part of thkc year 181?, Thomas Thomas, a man who had
been driven out by the agent, as an intruder in the Chickasaw nation,
built a small split log hut upon the ground now known as the residence
of C. JX Warren, Esq. This was the fir^t effort ever, made by the white
man to build at.t^is place, but there were no signs of its ever having. been
occupied by any yhite person till 181 0.
About the middle o' Jun^ 1819, Thomas Sampson, (afterwards Judge
of the. Probate Court^ William Viser, Spirus Boach, and William Pdor
came t^^tbi^ place. Spirus Boaoh. occupied and kept entertainment in,
the cahin built by Theymas Thomas, and from the peculiarities of him*
self and &mily,.tbe Indians named the place Sboofk-huttah'tom-abab^or.
Opossum Tow4i^ wh\<i\k name it. retained and was known by h^ several
yeais. A shoitt tin^ after this, the citij^ns of the town and its vipinitjr
had a meting, and at the suggestion of Silas Iff^Bee, the plskce received
the aagae of Coluim,bus* . .

STATE OF LOUISIANA.
This State has an area of 46,431 square miles.
' The swamp lands which lie mostly on the west bank of the Mississippi
Biver, extend from twenty to forty miles in width, and are the richest
lands in the world. When these landfe shall be properly drained and
protected from the overflow of water "from the Mississippi and its tribu-
taries, it requires no prophet to foresee that this great valley will be
« The Nile" of the United States.
Here are the finest sugar and cotton lands in the United States, an4
perhaps in the world. There are smaller bodies of lands in Texas, as
WeH' adapted to the production of sugar and cotton, but no where can
be found so large a body. Thousands of acres of these lands are being
redeemed!' from overflow, and' t)r6ught into successful cultivation every
year. In reference to the plati' for drainmg and protecting these l^nds,
many theories have been suggested, but none as yetj well carried out
It will be found wholly impracticable to confine the immense body
of the waters of the Mississippi within its banks. The laws of nature
must be consulted. The outlets which the law of nature has provided,
must be permitted, enlarged and protected by leveys. In the course of
time and experience, it may be found best to open a channel for the
waters of the Lakes and Bayous through the low grounds, west of the
Biver, to pass oflT a nearer way to the gulf of Mexico.
This plan, it is now thought, with the usual leveys upon the Biver
and its outlets, and the system of plantation leveying and draining late-
ly adopted, will be the cheapest and most permanent protection. This
done, the greatest agricultural wealth in the world will be developed in
Louisiana. The same remark applies to those portions of the States of
Mississippi, Askansas and Tennessee which have been subject to those
overflows. .
The planters of Louisiana and of the South in general, are regarded
(justly, we think,) the most intelligent^ liberal and courteous population
of the country. The same may also be said of merchants and profes-
sional gentlemen who have lived a few years in the South. The suscep-
tibility of warm impulses peculiar to the South, furnishes the elements
of the best society, and when oontroled by the principles of true religion ,
secures the highest intellectual and social enjoyment. This testimo-
By is freely given by every intelligent traveller, who spends but
a winter in the South.
158 BOUTHSRV BUBINKSS DIRKOTOBT AVD
If our brethren in the north "will come and see us, and learn that oar
filaves are provided and cared for, both in reference to this ^life and the
life to come, they nmt oonfeea that great injoitioe haa been done to us,
and that to decry and break down the South would be suicidal to the
North.
As the providence of God has .placed the North and South and
solemnly *' joined them together, let no man put them asunder.'' As
they are, they embody the elements of the greatest people on the globe.
As they are mutually dependent upon, so that they are mutual helpers
of each other. Long may they liye in social harmony and grow in
commercial prosperity.

Our Parish, (Caldwell) is only twentj-four miles square, and is divi*
ded by the Ouachita river, upon the banks of which there lies some of
the finest Agricultural lands m the South. It is pretty well all taken u
and there are now large apd extensive plantations and farms opening. \
has been estimated by the knowing ones of New Orleans, that there at

^30,000 bales Cotton shipped annually down the Ouachita to that citj,
and as this section of countrj is jet in its infancy, this estimate shows the
great resources of which it is capable, should the rail roads now in contem-
plation be completed) I have no doubt but that the products of this region
of country will be doubled in a very few years.
I have here spoken of the whole country watered by the Ouachita
and tributaries^ of which Caldwell Parish is a portion, and nearly in the
centre.
B. Duckworth, Justice Peace in and for Parish of Caldwell, will
promptly attend to any business that may be entrusted^ to his care.

STATE OF KENTUCKY.
The State of Kentucky has an area of 16,040,748 acres of land,
5,068,270 of which are in cultivation. Some of the largest grain and
stock farms in the West or South are in this State. Com, Tobacco^
Hemp, Grass and Small Grain, are the staples of this State. Stock
growing is receiving increased attention within the last few jeais, and is
paying well for that attention. The following reference to the Census
of 1850, will show the annual amount of the principal products of
Kentucky.
Bushels of Com, 58,672,591; Wheat, 2,142,822; Oats, 8,201,311
lbs. of Butter, 9,947,523; lbs. of Wool, 2,207,433; pounds of Tobacco,
55,501,196; tons of Hemp, 1,335; Swine, 2,801,163; Sheep, 1,102,001.
Popuhition, whites 761,413; slaves 210,981; free colored 5,148. Total
0,824,05. Merchants 3,177; Lawyers 005; Doctors 1,818; Ministers of
the Gospel 931.
If rich lands, minerals, water power, forests of fine timber, fruitrf*, fine'
springs of water, with the application of skilful agriculture, manufactures,
mining, commerce, rail roads, steam boat navigation, ^c, can make a
rich State, then Kentucky will ere long be a very rich State.
In chivalry and patriotism she stands deservedly high. She has
many excellent schools and colleges and is taking the proper stept to es-
tablish a system of general education.
The citizens of Kentucky are celebrated for sobriety, morality, intelli-
gence and cordial hospitality to each oilier and to strangers.
We regret that the returns from all the Counties of this State did not
come in, in time to be inserted. We shall make an earnest efifort and
hope to succeed in making a full and flattering report for Kentucky in
our next volume.

LOUISVILLE
I^ most handsomely laid out for a large city. Its streets b^^ wiii»an4
beautiful, and its late improvements ar^ large and city like*
The business houses recently put up and those now going up 9m
upon a scale of magnitude and beauty equal to those of any cilv.
If there is any distinctive feature in the trade of this city, it is in the
Drug line. The Tobacco, Pork, Groceries^ Shoes and Dry Goods tiade
is also large. The new ppper and publishing offices are large and well
conducted. And the Music and Book Trade is not le^ important.
The Churches, Halls and other public ^buildings are of a size and finish
indicating both liberality and good taste. There has been, till recenUr,
a sinful negligence on the subject of popular or general edueatioii. To
the late liberal policy adopted by this city for objects of education, much
is due to the agency of the press. No public or national interest OHseB
more immediately under the control of the press than this, and yet bi>t
few writers comparatively act as if they were sensible of their obliga-
tions. As the press sustains education, so will education sustaiip Uie
press. Let the press of every village, town and city, imitate the ei^
ample of the Louisville press in passing the claims of universal educa-
tion.
The population of Louisville is £upposed to be about 60,000. Bi
manufacturing interests have grown up rapidly within the last few
years. No business interest contributes so njueh to the permanent
growth and prosperity of a city or a community, as manufacturing. Hera
is productive capital.
We call attention to the business cArds of this city, and we regret that
our Agent, Mr. Collins, nor ourself, had time to canvass and present the
clums of our workw
J0r See the eard of Messrs. G. W, Braioard & Bro^ N.a |09
Fourttt street. Their stock and fixtures for printing moeic, together
with the number and style of their Piano Fortes., and ev^ry other
musical instrument usually kept in mmc stores^ cannot fpil to plme
the ear, the eye and the cultivated taate. We commend this .aitablpsh-
ment |ind th^ ^u^lein^nly proprietors to th^ favor and ^^fidenee of
the trade.
^^_ The Gait ^ome, (Messrs.'' John Baiqe ic Co., Proprietow) is
justly an object 6f interest and pride to the city of Louisville ani tha

whole busiaesa and travelling public. . Every luxury that the markel
can aflford, done up in exquisite style, 19 here bount^uUy furnkhed.
The size, ventilation and furniture of every apartmeat in tkis Urge
establishment, exhibit a taste and ^n ap|>reciatian of the comfort wA
the wants of the public worthy of al) commeDdation.
/S^ Nock, Wicks & Co. — ^This house is large and very centrally
located. Their trade with the South and South West, "particularly,"
is. very heavy in Liquors, Tobvco, Starch, Soap, Cider, Vinegar^ Ac,
usually manutacturhd in the VVest. The senior partner, Mr. .Nock, f«
well and favorably known as a raerehantfor the last twenty years in this
city, and is now one of the weaUhy men of the State. The joeality of
tbeir principal trade and their acquaintance in the manufactHfi.ng towoe
and cities of the Ohio River, offer inducements to shippers of Cotton aod
Pig Iron to this market and consign meats from manufacturers.
J^We call attention to the card of Rowland, Russell Se Co. The
Soap and Candle Manufactory is one of the largest in the South or
West, and is fully entitled to all that their card claims, and much mpre.
We cordially comineod them to the trade of the whole South Md
West.
/^^ As an evidence of the extent of Mr. Spencer's business, two of
bis bills for advertising were shewn me, which reach the small amount
in round numbers of two hundred dollars each, for the last quarter end-
ing June do. Let 00 one wonder at kis suecess.

By politeness of Mv^ ^odenber(psr, of the firm of Lindanberger
k Co., I was shown- tbto^g^tlieir large and commodious four story
building, 180 feet deep, and was much pleased with their arrange-
ments and capacity for their business. In looking over their sales book,
I found they were supplying the trade of a large section of the South

Her progress in Railroad, Manufacturing, Agricultural and other im-
provemdnts, outstrips any other State in the South. Her liberal policy
in fofttering and aiding schemes of internal improvement, instead of
depleting has reploted her treasury. Hor Bonds command a handsome *
premium, the interest upon whiob she Offers to payr six months in ad-
Ytmce. A large portion of her lands is poor, but careful culture
manuring, <S^c., they are growing rich and well repay the husbandman's
toil f- '- , .
Her mineral wealth alone, when fully deyelo()ed, will mak& her rich.
She^faas over 1000 miles of Railroad now corr^pleted, wbich pays well,
bui which will be doubly vailuable when her magnificent schemes now
in rapid progress, shall be completed.
Savannah is her prineipal i^oKomereial city, lias now a population of
about 25,000. Augusta, Columbus, Mftp^ and Atlanta are beautiful

verging from it at Fort Valley to Oglethorpe and soon to be completed
to Americus.
The Macon and Westera Rail Road to Atlanta and those connecting
with the Georgia Road from Attgusta. the State Road from Atlanta to
Chattanooga and thence to Nashville, by the Nashville and Chattanooga
Railroad, the Atknta and Lagrange Road completed to Montgomery,
Ala., all pay well and contribute largely to build up the Agricultural,
Manufacturing and Commercial wealth of Macon and the States and
cities united by them.
These Roads have able and accommodating 'Presidents, Superinten-
dents and Conductors.
I^T* The Lanier Hou!>e, by Messrs. Logan k Meara, has, as we think
deservedly, .the reputation pf a first rate Hotel. The Proprietors both
have that peculiar gift so essential to the success of Hotel keepers, (po-
liteness.) Hence we suppose in part . at • least the politeness of the
servants.
The bed chambers are large, well ventilated and famished in a style
of neatness and comfort. The traveller cannot but have observed what
an improvement there is in Hot^l keeping within the, last few years. It
is said that the Lanier House is equal to any Southern Hotel. It is
equal to any of i.ts size in the interior. We ask the co-operation of city
and country to aid these gentlemen in keeping up t(|is establishment b/
giving them a liberal patronage. See their Card.

FULTON COUNTt.
Atlanta is the county seat of Fulton; population about 8000. It is
celebrated as the Railroad city of the South. Four important Railroads
meet here, bringing an immense travel and a heavy trade to this point.
It is also celebrated for health and the rapid increase of its population,
commerce and manufactures. It has the largest and handsomest pas-
senger depot in the South, and perhaps in this country. This magnifi-
cent structure is the joint work of the several Railroad Companies. It
has also the finest Court House in the South. It has a number of
handsome Churches and a few good private Schools. Male and Female
Colleges are much needed here and will, we trust, soon be es-
tablished.
A fair showing of the Hotels, Commerce, Manufactures and Railroads,
may be seen by reference to the cards and notices inserted below, all of
which are commended to the trade and travel of the county. W^made
our head quarters here with our«friend L. Dean, of the City Hotel. He
does not keep the finest house in the city, but we like it because it is a
quiet, orderly, Temperance House. We have, and still do ask that this
House may be well sustained. Mr. Dean is a courteous and pleasant
gentleman.
J^ See the card of his house.

OXKSRAL OOMMERCIAL ADVERTISER. 246
The Trout House, to be oi^ened in November, 1854, is an ao-
quisitioD and an omameDt to the city of Atlanta, of which it may well
be proud, and to which they will (as they ought) extend a liberal pat- -
ronage. Mr. Gage, the enterprising proprietor, (late of the Eutaw House,
Mobile,) has in this house erected a monument to. his memory, and fur-
nished an example of liberal public spirit which cannot fail to be grate-
fully cherished by his family, his adopted city and the public in
general.
The high, delightful and healthy location of Atlanta, its convenient
access by four of the finest Railroads in the South, to every Southern
city and those of the North and West, will always make it a desirable
Summer retreat for Southerners and a winter retreat for Northerners.
For each and all of these the Trout House will be the centre of attrac-
tion. It is located north and near the Passenger Depot, fronting sooth
where all the Railroads meet. It also commands a delightful view of the
whole* city.
The front is beautiful and the whole building of heavy walls and well
supported by partitions. The rooms (one hundred in number) are well
lighted and venttlated, many of them large enough for families, and all
furnished with a view to elegance of style and the highest degree of com-
fort and satisfaction. The gentlemanly proprietor has laid himself out
to keep and sustain his house in a style not inferior to any iri the South.
Success to him.
r Twenty miles South of the city of Atlanta on the Georgia Road
will bring you to the Stone Mountain Hoi^se, kept by Messrs.* Clark &
Hitchcock. Here a, few days of fine living, the merry greeting of smil-
ing faces, rusticating upon the celebrated ^^ Stone Mountain''^ and occa-
sionally taking a telescopic glance from the Observatory over the va^ty
fields of the Sunny South, will drive awav the whole train of miserable
"Blue Devils." - ' /
Seeing the prowds of visitors at this place, some seeking health and
more seekmg pleasure, whilst others were seeking rest and relaxation from
the toils and pressing cares of business, we could but wonder that so
many of our Southern people should leave siich scenes of pleasure,
health and beauty as are found here, and a hundred other places in the
South, to spend tiie Summer in the North. Why not spend their money
at home, where they made it, and where in the legitimate channels of
circulation it will return to them again. Where too, health, pleasure
and home Sympathies, all combine to make such visits happy. The en-
terprising proprietors of the "Stone Mountain House" are .entitled to both
the patronage and gratitude of the South for erecting a-magnificent
Hotel that will accommodate three hundred guests. This they can and
will do next year, 1855, in a style at least equal to any in the country.
For particulars, see their card. Success to them.

entertain comfortably two hundred persons.

well furnished table, we are pleased both with the house, the table and

ANTI-DYSPEPTIC MEDICINE.
This valuable laxative and tonic cordial, is most confidently recoi
mended to those peraons who are suffeiinff from ths. 4}socders inddt
to an impaired digesUon. -The^mptoms mdicatlve of mn imperfect
similation of the food, and its healthy and natural appropriation to
sustenance of the system, are too varied and numerous to call for a
nute account of them here. To those who are afficted with such
orders, thej are but too readily iq)pFeciatsd^ and they need no det
statement of them« To all such the author commends this med'
An ample experience in the practice of medicine, and in the use ot
remedy, assures him that it possesses virtues superior to any other
pounds with which he is acquainted. He is willing that its repu
shall rest upon its merits alone. For the coetiveness, headache, a
digestion of pregnancy, its benefits are peculiarly manifest ; and f
distressing disorder, it has proven eminently useful.
As a promoter of digestion, its efficacy will be readily aduuxv
by those persons who indulge freely in the luxuries of the table,
reason of a dow and labored digestive process, suflfef. from fuln
oppression of stomach, headache, er&ctatlons, A^c Taken un(
circumstances, it renders immediate relief. Its properties as a
for continued use, restojring the searetions, and Mcdtiiig the vei
action of the intestinal canal, renders it a safe and valuable fam:
cine, equally adapted to children and adults.

282 SOUTIlfiRK BUiaN'SdS D4RECTOHY AND
RICHLAND COUNTY.
Augusta, is situated at the bead of navigation on the Savannah river,
two hundred and 6fty miles by water and one hundred and thirty-one by
Railroad al^ve the city of Savannah, and one hundred and thirty six miles
by Railroad fiom Charleston, S. 0. It is also at the junction of three
Railroads — the South Carolina, Georgia and Waynesboro', all of which
have large Depots and bring much trade and travel to this city.
Its streets are wide and handsomely laid off. Broad is the principal
business street and is one hundred and sixty feet wide. Green is a
beautiful street one hundred and sixty-five feet wide and has two rows
of Live Oaks shading the centre. On this street are the Medical College,
the City Hall, and many fine residences.
The Churches, Halls and public buildings indicate both liberality and
good taste. The first work of considerable puhlic interest done by Au-
gusta was the opening of a canal seven miles above the city, by which
the waters of the Savannah river are brought to it with suflBcient power
to drive the large Cotton Mills of the Augusta Manufecturing Company,
the Augusta Machine Works, Mr. Cheely's large Gin Factory, two
Flouring Mills, <fec. From these Mills the water is taken back irito the
river above the city, so that steam boat navigation to the oity may aot
be hindered. Since this judicious appropriation by the city it ha$
geownnp from a population of 6000 to about 18,000.
The Banks of Augusta (see their cards) are well cjioered, well jduiq-
aged and have always maifttained a sound and healthy condition. So
also of the Insurance Offices and Agencies.
. Tha Medical College is a fine building, located in a pleasant portion
of the city, with a large and beautiful shaded yard. This Institution ha^
been in successful operation for twenty one yeais, has a handsome enr>
dowment^ an able and highly reputable Faculty and Frofessorshipft^
each department, filled by gentlemen of the highest standing for skill and
ability in the profession. See the card. The State of Georgia, the whole
South, may well be proud of such an Institution.
The Infirmary for the practice of Surgery and the treatment of
chronic diseases of negroes, is an 'Institution well woifthy of the confi-
dence and patronage of the public. This is an individual enterprize by
Messrs. Robert and Henry F. Campbell, M.D., and also Professors in the
Medical College. We had the pleasure of looking through this new and
well arranged establishment. It is a three story building, finish^ off
in very neat style, with a handsome tower. This establishment is .both
an ornament to the city and an honor to the projectors. The rooms on
each floor are well ventilated, provided with beds, water and fixtures tor
bathing in warm or cold water, ^hower or tub.
Patients here are well provided for with cooks' and good nurses, and
room enough for forty or fifty.
' We call special attention to«.the large Drug. Establishments of
Dr. Tutt and others, whose cards are ini>ei;ted below. Thesi? skill ju

the Medical Profeasioa, and particularly in compounding, entitle them to
the highest public confidence. Having examined their Targe and well se-
lected stocks, we take pleasure in giving this unsolicited notice and cor-
' dial recommendation of them.
^
t^ Attention is respectfully invited to the card of Messrs. McKinne
« Hall. It Will be an object of interest to any one visiting Augusta, to
examine their large stock of School, Classical, Medical, Law, Theological,
Historical, Miscellaneous and Sunday School Books> ^^^^h th^y are
selling wholesale and retail, at very low prices.
S^ We commend Mr. M. P. Stovall, Ware House and Commission
Merchant, to the attention and' acquaintance of our friends in Tennessee
^nd Alabariia, as a gentleman of sterKng integrity and business capacity,
We can cordially say the same of all the Ware House, • Commission,
Grocer and Dry Goods Merchants, whose cards are inserted.
,,^ Gin .Factory.— Mr. Cheely's card will not fail to attract the at-
tention of the Cotton growing districts of the South. ,His large estab-
lishment and well selected machinery (carried by water power) under
the supervision of Mf. Oglesby, one of the most skilful Machinists of the
South, with capital, materials and competent workmen, the public may
i«]y confidently upon having all orders filled promptly and to the fullest
^tttisf action; < » > •
J^* French Burr Mill Stone Manufectory, by Mr-Wm. R.Schirmer,
is among the objects of interest to Merchant, Flouring and Grist. MiDs,
to which we would call the attention of the South. It is a large estab-
lishment, w/ell conducted, aiijd giving liiU satji^tion . , .
,.,_ We have the pleasu^'Q.of wparing a pair of bigots made by Mr*
Nus, and take pleasure in recompaending his makeof.boots,a8eroigently

^^That you may eojoy your visit to this city ,to the fullest extent*
you will stop at the Augusta Hotel, kept by M* P- Starr. Having si)pnt
a few weeks in this house, it would not. be pardonable to give the noticeP
we have of the many <^jepto of inlerestin the^dtyjandnot notice thi»
fine house. ' 1 i .
We hardly know whether to attribute th/e very great success of this
Hotel to the polite and coijrteous attentions of the proprietor, or the eu-
jwrior skill and good management of his exqeljent lady. We propose
tbatthey gohalvesin thehonort andpfofits pf thoic great- success^ which

will no doubt be kcceptable to both. The one could not suc<ieed wttfkoat
the other. So much for the **help meet" which God pronded for man.
We never saw a Hotel succeed well that had not an intelligent busineMr
woman to Buperviee the interior and table department. Laying al! thh
moralizing aside, the Augusta Hotel is both an ornament and an acquisi-
tion to the city whose name it bears. The property, trade and character
of the city are promoted by such a house. It is therefore the interfe^t of
every city to put up and sustain such a house. We need only say
what we have heard hundreds say and what every one will say ^ho
stops here but a few days, \iz, : The Augusta is k first clan Hotel.
The Augusta Manufacturing Company are now in successftil
operation. See their card. Notwithstandmg they have a large capital
invested and have had some trouble and delay in getting fairly under
headway, they hav4) sucoeeded and are now reaping the good fruits tt
patience and perseverance. James !tiope, Agent.

ijiottble to get fairly lender way, but are now succeeding well .under the
supervision of Col. Height, Agent See their card.

9BB SOUTHERN BUSINESS DIRECTORY AND
Having secured the services of Mr. G. T. OGLESBY, I have estab-
lished a large GIN FACTORY on Ifbe Caual, in this city, where I am
prepared to furnish any nupiber of Cotton Gins at the shortest notice.
I am happily situated, being nearly in the centre of the Georgia,
South Carolina, and Augusta and Waynesboro' ^^ail Road Depots,
which renders it very convenient for the planters as well as myself.
I deliver all Gins at ^be phoe required, free of any expense, and
warranted to give general satisfection.
The Gins are made of lixe best luaterial, and by experienced me-
chanics. I use the Patent .Wing 6rtiah, of which I ha\ e the exclusive
right of the South.
Every Gin is put up under the special direction of Mr. Oglesby, and
carefully inspected by him before leaving the shop.
. The Cotton Ginned in the Oglesby Gin, never failed to get the Ugh-
est premiuxn at the public State Exhibitioos, and bring tUe hig^eat
prices in market. : '
Notwithstanding the strong and numerous oQmpetilions, the C#ip-
missjon Merchants, both of this city and Savannah, have generally re-
commended the purchase of these Gins, and a continuation of the same
is cordially sdicited by me. < , . ,
My. iDMsUntry is of the latest abd moat B^ : .
All orders by maii will receive atbention in duel time. Old Gins re-
paired, and all the late improvements attached if required .

STATE OF SOUTH-CAROLINA.
The State of Si^uth CaroKna has an area of 16 fill, 100 acres of land,
of which 4,072,651 acres are in cultivation. Cotton and Rice are her
staples, though in the Northern part of the State^ Corn, Whefit, Oats,
Rye and the usual grasses grow finely,
Annual products of 1850— Bales of Cotton 300,901 ; lbs. of Rice
169,930,613; bushels of Corn 16,271,454; bushels of Wheat 1,066,277;
Sweet Potatoes, bushels of, 4,337,^469; Irish Potatoes, bushels of,
136,494. White population 274,563 ; Slave populatbn 384,984 ; Free
Colored 8,960. Total population 668,507. Clergyipen 474; I4^wyer8
397; Physicians 996.
The credit of South Carolina has always stood fair. In Banking capi-
tal she is, perhaps, the richest State in the Union, to her size and popuU-
tion. Bank failures are unknown in this State. The means for general
education are ample. The poor (not. many of this class) are cared for,
The slaves, too, are cared for, both in reference to their souls .and bodies.
In talents, general intelligence and statesmanship, the citizens of
South Carolina compare favorably with those of any State in the Union,
She has been made "the scape goat" of the principal political dissentions
which have agitated the country. In this, ii^ustice has been done her.
Although it may be true that some of her ablest statesmen have erred
on the question of ""State Rights," (to err is human.) yet, tbat the agita-
tation of this question has contributed to advance the science of popular
free governments, we think no one can doubt whose attention has been
directed to this Subject. • It is the glory of our republican institultons
that they are provided with "checks and balances" which the agitation
of free discussion only adjusts and puts right.
' No fears need be entertained that South Carolina wiH "go off in a
tangent;^' that she is not patriotic, loyal and sound on. all questions of
Constitutiotial liberty, or that she does not understand and love the
union of the States. Where a liberal system of education prevails, as
here, and where the Bible and the institutions of religion are honored,
there need be no fears for the cause of liberty.
A notice of the cities of Chai:les|oiv, Columbia and other towns i^the
State will come under their appropriate heads.
It will be seen that our list of Mei*chants for this State is very full,
having returns from every District;. All whose business is not designated
are put under the head of "General Merchants.*! ^ '

BEAUFORT, S. C.
Beaufort is the oldest town in South Carolina, the original settle-
ment of Landonnier being either the present site of the town or within
a few miles of it. It is remarkable for its healthiness during the whole
year, and its principal entrance, the harbor of Port Royal, is considered
the best on the Southern Coast. Its commercial importance has never
been properly appreciated, having been only considered by the wealthy
planters of the surrounding neighborhood as a desirable Summer resi-
dence, where they can enjoy at once exemption from the malariony influ-
ences of the Rice and Cotton Plantations, and the benefits of cultivated
society, together with the advantages of the best schools that the State
affords. The white population is about 800. There is an Episcopal,
a Baptist, a Methodist Episcopal and a Roman Catholic Church, also a^

CHARLESTON, S. C.
Occupies a J)oint of land formed 1)y the confluence of Asbky and
Cooper rivers, which together enter the ocean by a spacious and deep
harbor, extending seven miles below the city. It is 120 miles 8outh<;ast
of Columbia, the State Capital, and SiO miles from Washtngtoii.
Four channels of different depths afford an entrance into the harbor
through a sand-bar which obstructs it. The deepest of these admits
Bhips with 16 feet draught. The harbor is defended by Fort Moultw,
on Sullivan's Island, lying at its mouth, and by Forts Pinekney and
Sumter.
The city stands on ground someivhat elevated above tide-water, anid
may be said to resemble New York on a smaller scale. It is con-
structed with regularity and taste, and many rich and varied trees of
southern climes lend their charms. Besides the city proper, there are
populous suburbs, which afford fine sites for residences, and are iden-
tified with its growth and interests. Charleston may be considered as
the metropolis of the Southern Atlantic States, as New Orleans is of
those on the Mexican gulf and the Mississippi. Into this basin, flow
many of the products of North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia and Ala-
bama. Its foreign commerce is extensive and valuable, as is also its
coasting trade, and packets, as well as splendid steamships, ply to New
York and other maritime cities. The Santee Canal connects San tee
with Cooper river, thus opening a communication from Columbia, the
State Capital, to Charleston.
The public buildings and institutions of the city, indicate the wealthy
intelligence and liberality of the people. There are a li umber of banks,
churches and hotels, some of them splendid and costly. Other promi-
nent buildings are the custom house, guard house» exchange, city hall,
stste citadel, alms house, orphan asylum, jail and the College of Charles-
ton. The literary and scientific institutions and libraries, are generally
respectable and flourishing. No city is more justly ndted for hospitality
and refinement, and its climate is more salubrious than that of most
Southern cities, affording a delightful and safe summer resort for plan-
ters from the low country and the West Indies, and a pleasant winter
resort for people from the North.
The South Carolina Railroad extends to Augusta, on the Savannah,
137 miles, where it communicates with the Georgia Railroad. At
Branchtown, 62 miles from ChaHeston, the Columbia branch diverges
to Camden and Columbia.
The population in 1790, was 16,359; in 1800, 18,712; in 1810,
24,711; in 1820, 24,480; in 1830,30,280; in 1840, 29,261; in 1850,
42,986; in 1855, about 48,000.
The Artesian Well, on the corner of J^eeting and Wentwortb-streetsi
is a valuable acquisition to Charieston. Years of persevering toil have
reached a. depth of more than 1200 feet. At this point a vein of water
rushes up with such force as to ascend thirty feet above the surface of
the earthy supplying thirty gallons to the minute, which, although it has
824 souTHSRir busiksss dirxotort and
as yet too much of the saline for drinking purposes, will be of great
value to the city.
Added to the number of public buildings of the city, are the Me-
chanic's Institute, a large and beautiful edifice on Meeting-street, near
the MilU House, in which is fitted up one of the largest Halls in the
city; the new State Bank and the People's Bank, both ornamental to the
city and highly creditable to those Institutions.
The Commercial advantages of Charleston are such, that were it not
for the fear of the yellow fever which has occasionally prevailed here aa
an epidemic, it would, in a few years, reach a population^ of 100,000.
Except this fever, there is not a more healthy and lovely city in the
United States. It is believed that by sanitary n^eans and the strict en-
forcement of the quarantine laws, the yellow fever would never visit
the city as an epidemic.
Long has her progress been retarded by the want of suflSeient depth
of water on the bar at the entrance of her harbor, for the largest class of
ateamers, but nature has recently commenced and nearly completed a
new channel of greater depth, and art will soon finish what nature hat
80 well begun.
I^^See the attractive card of Pearson's RHEt[MATio Rblibv and
FiKE Extractor, on the inside of the right hand cover. This spedfic
and valuable remedy recently discovered and patented in — ,
1864, by Mr. B. E. Pearson, of Charleston, S. C, has already won
golden opinions of the afflicted, and also the public as far as it is
known. It is one of the most powerful remedies in the world, and
must win its way -to universal favor.
There is a remarkable Providence in the discovery of this Remedy.
Mr. Pearson had been for years laid up with Rheumatism. Resorted
in the mean time to all the celebrated remedies for this disease in his
reach, aided also by the skill of the Profession, without finding cure.
Reduced in health and means, he was on the point of despairing. He
still believed, as he had often heard, that there was something in the
vegetable kingdom, which, if its virtues were known and skilfully ap>
plied, human suffering might be greatly relieved, if not cured. He
therefore commenced a course of experimenting, extracting and com-
bining and applying to himself the most powerful vegetable agents •
that could be procured. What could exceed the joy of his helpless fa-
mily as well as himself, to find the " Rheumatic Relief." I n less
than one year this discovery was made and he cured permanently.
Mr. Pearson is an unassuming, amiable and pious gentleman, ambi-
tious neither of wealth or popular fame. He has, (as every man should
have,) an ennobling ambition to do good to his fellow men. Solicited
by a large circle of warm personal friends, he has taken a patent, and
is preparing to manufacture largely.
Its unexampled success in the cure of Rheumatism, Paralysis or
Palsy, Croup in children, Burns^ bites or stings of poisonous insects, bite
of a dog, poison by cuts of glass, nail, thorn or any vegetable or other
poison, have already commanded the unqualified approbation and con-
fidence of all who have tried it or witnessed its effects upon others .

One bottle, (says a lady,) has been worth hundreds of dollars
to her.
t is not known to have failed in any one instance where applied as
directed. It ought to be kept in every family in the world. One bottle
may last a family a year, and may save hundreds of dollars, besides
great pain and suffering.
Fully confident of its unequalled value to every family for the pur-
poses prepared, we have taken the Agency to introduce it in the princi-
pal cities and towns of the United States, and also to see that the rights
of the Pattentee are not invaded, and ^o prevent the intrusion of a spa*
rious article. See the Agent^s card at the close of this work.
J|^"Wein ail candor to pur friends shipping Cotton, Corn, Sugar,
Flour, Grain, other produce to the Charleston, South-Carolina Market,
state, from our personal knowledge, that Mr. Wm. Allston Gourdin is
well and universally known to be a Merchant of position, energy and
sterling integrity, and that they can, in him, repose the utmost confi-
dence, and be assured, that their business will be executed by him with
every promptness and despatch.
Mr. Wm. Allston Gourdin merits from the " South " many, many
thanks, from having some five or six years ago, first successfully intro-
duced, to the Planting and Farming interests, the "Genuine Peruvian
Guano." The " Peruvian Guano," together with the '* Mineral Phos-
phate of Lime," are the " Magical Manures " of the age ; for by them
the most sterile, worn out lands, can, by judicious use, be made to yield
from 25 to 400 ^per cent. Use the fertalizers but once, and the active
agriculturist seeking his own interest, forthwith discovers it is folly,
waste of time, labor, capital, &c., to till the earth without them.
Mr. Wm. Allston Gourdin, who is importer for the States of South-
Carolina, Georgia, North-Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee, receives
the "Peruvian Guano " in cargoes, direct from the "Chincha Islands" ;
you therefore to him must apply, in order to secure " genuine." Mr.
Gourdin is also Agent for the South, for the " Mineral Phosphate of
See the extra card of ** The Casket^
Sacred Melodies for Social and Public Worship. — Numerous
are the works upon Sacred Music which have lately been issued from
tlje press — still the motto seems to be " Excelsior," and we feel great
pleasure flnd confidence in recommending The Casket^ as containing the
richest and most valuable collection of music ever published. The aim
to make a complete music book has been entirely successful. The first .
feature of the work is, The Elements of Vocal Music Simplified, In
this department the principles of music have been so*ably and thorough-
ly explained as to render the aid of a teacher almost unnecessary. The
•elections from the different music books, seem to have been made with
great care and discrimination, comprising nearly all the new and choice
melodies, together with many favorite old tunes of solid worth. The
new arrangements from the works of Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Beetho-
ven, Rossini and other celebrated masters, will be universally admired,
besides the many charming and expressive melodies by Messrs. Robin-
826 SOUTHKRN BUSINESS DI&ECTORT AND
son and Woodbury, which cannot fail to please the most critical ear.
This work has baeu compiled for tho iho of all denominations, and con-
tains music for every occasion of public worship. The editors richly de-
serve tlie thanks of the musical public for tho manner in which they
havd perfonnod their arduous task ; and we feel confident that *' The
Casket*' will have a more extensive circulation than any of its predeces-
sors.
See the extra card of Messrs. James, Williams <fc GiTSiNaBft»
Publishers, No. 3 Broad street, successors to Walker <k Jambs. This
is considered one of the largest and best publishing Houses in the South.
They can show specimens of Book Work equal to any in any city. The
Fancy Job Printing Department is large and admirably adapted to eve-
ry style ot hwey and j)lain work. They are all three practical printers,
active business men, and fully worthy the confidence and patronage of
the public. Our extensive business relations with them have been both
pleasant and highly satisfactory.
J^' See the extra card of the Charleston Hotel, D. Mixer, Proprie-
tor. An error too common with Hotel Keepers, has been, that when
they have succ«^eded in establishing a fine reputation, they relax
their zeal, supposing that a fine reputation once gained would carry
them safely forward. It is not so with Mr. Mixer. He has the credit
of being the fi^rst in Charleston to open a large first class hotel. Years
of Unremitting zeal and high ambition have not exhausted his energies.
The flattering notices of the Press, the commendations of his immense pat-
ronage, have not affected him otherwise than to inspire a lofty ambition
to excel. He has an adaptcdness of character and talent for his busi-
ness. He is himself at home, and has the peculiar happiness of making
his guests feel that they are also at home. The same may be said of
his polite clerks and assistants. There is quite as much order, neatness
and elegance in this large establishment as in any we have seen from
New Orleans to Montreal. Mr. Mixer has the gratitude of Charleston
and the South (to which he is entitled) for sustaining an establishment
which is an ornament to the city, and a lasting monument to his praise.
The luxuries of North and South, sea and land, have found their way
to his tables, nor do they cease coming.
Jl^ See the extra, card of Messi-s. Gindrat <fe Duncan, Druggists
and Chemists, 215 King street. Their acknowledged skill in compound-
ing, their sound judgment in the selection of fresh and genuine articles,
together with their extensive expedience in the preparation, as well as the
practice of medicine, entitle them to the fullest cnofidence. We invite
physicians, druggists and planters from the country, to give a call, after
which an order will bd sufEcienL This notice is given without the sug-

This House has a large and beautiful stock, and having connection with
a large establishment in New York, is enabled to sell low for cash and
keep up seasonable stocks. Success to them.
Among the many objects of interest in this city, is that of A. N. Co-
hen, jr., wholesale and retail clothing warehouse, 261 King street, who
declined giving us a card- of his House. We thought this tlie more
strange, from the fact that he has a large clothing factory in Newark,
N. J., and sells, as we learned, remarkably low. Bat, no 1 He would
not give it. " Well, we asked him, what is the reason," since we have
about 200 cards for Charleston ?" "Why," said he, "we have as much as
we can do, and are determined to sell so low that each purchaser will
become an advertisement." And to this he attri'butes the reputation his .
establishment, ■* Carolina Clothing Depot," has attained.
_ ' See the extra card of Messrs. Pierson, Jennings & Co., manu-
facturers and whplesale dealers in clothing, No. 26 Hayne street. This
House is to Charleston what the House of Alfred Munroe & Co. is to
New Orleans. They have three splendid rooms, 150 feet deep, filled
and emptied twice in the year. They do a large and accommodating
business. For integrity and promptness, they stand A, No. 1. Having
a large House in New York, they are able to keep full stocks, and also to
sell on the most reasonable terms. May thej^ long enjoy the fruits of
their growing prosperity. Country merchants will do well to call here
before buying elsewhere.
j(^" See the extra card of the Victoria Hotel, B. Roddin, Proprie-
tor, King street. Having enjoyed the polite hospitalities and the excel-
lent fare of this House for some weeks, we are pleased to give this unso-
licited notice of it.
Mr. Rodkin is at home in a hotel, and he has the peculiar, talent of
making his guests feel at home with him. The fare is very good, parlors
and chambers all neat, and charges moderate. Give him a call. Pack
sengers are taken to his House from, the packets and railroad depots.
^ J^" See the extra card of Messrs^ Matthiessen <fe O'Hara, wholesale
clothing House, No. 143 East Bay. We most cordially commend this
House, as fully entitled to all that their card asks. A career of thirty
years in successful business, has- given them an established reputation
for integrity and promptness. We invite the attention of planters and
country dealers to this House, with the fullest confidence that they will
be satisfied. Success to them.

' See the extra card of MesBrs. Bancroft, Beits is Marshall, direct
importers and wholesale dealers in staple and fancy dry goods, isc. Their
magnificent establishnoent excels in architectural beauty any storehouse in
the South, and is said to be not inferior to any in the world. It is four
story, fronting 60 feet on King, and runs back 320 feet^ on Market si.
The exterior is a deep New York brown, tastefully ornamented. The
interior is what may be called an exquisite combination of utility and
elegance. Then, you may see, at times, (each floor 820 feet,) moving
with business activity, one hundred or more clerks and salesmen, and
thrice as many customers, trading, measuring, cutting and folding goods,
and changing money. The raw countryman, on his first visit, stands
with silent wonderment, till a polite salesman steps up to him (as famil*
iarly as if an old acquaintance,) observing, " fine day, sir — what shall I
have the pleasure of showing you, sir ?^' In ten minutes a bill is made
that astonishes him for its cheapness.
The retail department is on the first floor, conducted under the style
of frowning, Leman is Co. Having a resident partner in Europe, (as
the reader will see by their card,) well acquainted with the foreign mar-
kets, through whom their goods are imported direct, they are enabled to

J^See the card of Messrs. McCreery <fe Hooke, Commission and
Forwarding Merchants. Mr. McCreery is well known in Tennessee, as
a young man of excellent business habits and strict integrity. Having
passed through the yellow fever epidemic in Charleston, and surviving
an attack of it himself, there need be no fears that he will desert his
post of duty. Mr. Hooke of Chattanooga, is extensively and favorably
Known as a man of capital and business experience. This new house
is opened expressly to meet the demands of shippers from the interior.
Consignments, together with all business put into their hands will re-
ceive prompt attention.
See the attractive card of the Mills House, T. R. Nickerson,
Proprietor. So many very flattering notices have been given of this
house, by the press North and South, East and West, that we respect-
fully decline an effort of description of that which can only be realized
and appreciated by contact with the cultivated tastes and senses. There
is but little enjoyment in the conception of a fine table, especially if
one is hungry and cannot reach it.
We have seen no description of this house that its guests would
consider extravagant, or even equal to its beauty and magnificence.
The Proprietor, Assistants, Waiters, Cooks, Maids, Parlors, Ordina-
ries, Saloons, Reading Rooms, Private OflBoes, Tables, Luxuries, Cham-
bers, &c., altogether have an adaptedness to a First Class Hotel that
cannot be surpassed in any city. The Girard House in Philadelphia,
is not its equal, (we have tried both.) The St. Nicholas in New-York,
excels it only in its size and the dazzling splendor of its furniture.
There are not two finer hotels in the United States than the Mills
House and the Charleston Hotel. As proud and honorable competitors
we are happy to find each well sustained.

The American Steam ship Company of Philadelphia have built the
above magnificent Steam ship for the purpose of giving greater facility
and encouraging trade and travel with the South and West. The
'^Quaker City" has been built with a view to great strength, being diag-
onally braced with iron and being unusually large for a coasting steamer
admits of more room and consequently of very comfortable accommoda-
tions. To which her Commander, Capt. J. H. Hodgdon, whose experi-
ence and gentlemanly deportment will add no little; supported by an
able set of oflScers. Passengers may be assured of having every atten-
tion paid to their wants. The advantages of this route, 'combined with
great speed of the ship, is that of one hundred miles of river navigation,
which makes the time at sea less than by any other steam ship line.
She will €ail punctually as advertised.

MILLS HOUSE,
CHARLESTON, SOUTH-CAROLINA.
The Mills House is eligibly and commandingly situated in the most
active business section of the city of Charlpston, S. C, at the southwest
corner of Meeting and Queen streets, extending a front of eighty feet
on the former, and three hundred feet on the lattei-. The brick work
is covered externally with a mastic cement, finely imitating brown stone;
and the monotony that would otherwise be produced by such an extent
of wall is relieved by the number and size of the windows, and the pro-
jecting brackets above them. These are of terra cotta, and in the richest
style of ornament allowed by good taste. The Meeting street, or prin-
cipal public entrance, is through a richly ornamented tripartite doorway
into a public vestibule. This is laid with the richest English Mosaic
tiles, and ornamented, in all respects, up to the highest style of eflfect
consistent with its purposes. The oiBce, and all the public rooms of the
house are finished off with all the skill of the painter, glazier, gilder,
woodworker, plasterer, etc., in their respective departments; and while
each room presents some variation in style, the principles of harmo ny
are preserved throughout. The gentlemen's dining saloon measures
seventy-five by forty-two feet, without pillars or columns, its ceiling being
secured and supported by trusses from above. It is ornamented overhead
in the richest style of decorative plastering, gilding, etc., which, with its
proportions, the ornaments around its windows, etc., render it one of the
most imposing halls a traveller could enter. The amplest arrangements
are made, for lighting, heating and ventilating this noble salon a manger
which will easily accommodate three hundred guests. The ladies' or-
dinary is on the second floor, measuring sixty five by thirty-two feet,
with an elevation of eighteen feet to the ceiling, which is coved. Every

expense has l)een lavished hero to obtain the utmost possible combina-
tion of ornament and effect; and few handsomer views could be presented
than this will afford a visitor, especially if he could take a peep when it
is filled by one hundred and sixty fair ladies, which number it will ac-
commodate. The ladies* parlors are found on the sec jnd floor, and are
furnished in a style regardless of expense, as to carpeting, curtains, otto-
mans, chairs, sofas, stools, etc., all of which are of the richest and costliest
forms and patterns. The dormitories, or apartments designed especially
for guests, number one hundred and eighty, distributed over the second,
third, fourth and fiHh flooi's. Bathing rooms for gentlemen are fitted
up in good style, convenient to the barber's pole; and on each floor
above the first are found similar rooms for ladies, elegantly furnished
"with all conveniences for .warm, cold or shower baths. The hou^e is
heated by steam, for which purpose an abundantsupply of pipe has been
introduced; and extensive system of pipe furnishes water to every part
of the house. • We need not add that gas light is abundantly furnished
in this establishment. The cost is about $300,000, including building,
furnishing, etc. Jt has been appropriately named after its proprietor
and projector, Otis Mills, Esq., who has, in a noble spirit of enterprise,
devoted his means to the improvement and embellishment of the city,
in which his honorable industry and business exertions have been so
eminently successful. If he who plants a shade tree by the sunny
roadside deserves the thanks of all succeeding travellers, he who fur-
nishes and fits out such a refuge and resting-place for travellers, as the
Mills House, will surely be gratefully, remembered by mjany a guest
who enters and onjoys its splendid repose. The control and manage-
ment of the Mills House are in the hands of Mr. Thomas S. Nickerson,
who has been tried and found fully versed in all the duties and qualifica-
tions of an accomplished landlord. Success to the Mills House !

KORTII CAROLINA.
North Carolina has an area of 20,996,983 acres of land, of which
6,453,975 acres are improved. Unimproved 15,643,008. This State
has largo bodies of land which are only valuable fur their groves of
pine, and are productive of great wealth in Pitch, Turpentine, Rosin
and Lumber.
These large forests of pine were thought to be valueless only a few
years ago. But evince, by the liberal policy of the State and private
capitalists Railroads are spanning her length and breadth, and bringing
a market to her very door for every thing she can make; a new era has
shed life and animation upon the whole State. The towns, villagesand
'plantations that were almost forsaken, are renewing their strength and
beauty, and smiling at the unmistakable signs of prosperity. ,
The census of 1850 puts her total population at 869,039; Merchants
at 1,913; Ministers of the Gospel, 747; Attorneys at Law, 399; Phy-
sicians, 1,083. Annual products. — Cotton bales 73,845; bushels of
Corn, 27,941,051; bushels of Wheat, 2,130,102; pounds of Tobacco,

WILMINGTON.
Wilmington is the principal exporting city in North Carolina. Its
▼ery rapid progress in the last few years may be indicated by the fol-
lowing : In 1840 the asse^ment of the city property was$o80,000,
now the same is nearly three millions and a half. It has a population
of about 14,000; fine churches and halls, but b» yet no very fine institu-
tions of learning. Until the last few years, this has been considered too
sickly for permanent high schools. It is at this time conjJidered as heal-
thy as any South Atlantic city. The drainage of the low wet places
about the city,' with other health preserving means, has contributed not
a little to this desirable change.
The capital, enterprizo and intelligence accumulating here so rapidly,
together with its shipping and Railroad connections, which are equal to
any, will make a city indeed soon. Our stay of three or four days was
well rewarded, as may be seen by reference to the list of cards inserted
in this work. A choice collection of cards, such as we can and do most
cordially recommend as very worthy and well qualified. The greater
portion of our stay here was with Capt. Robert S. Macomber who has
retired from a long service as a Sea Captain to enjoy the quiet of life
and the sweets of a home circle of which any man may well be proud.
His varied knowledge and experience and his ready manner of commu-
nicating, gave us much amusement and pleasure. In nothing did Capt
M. }>lease us more than his devotion to the Temperance Cause. May
his life be long and useful and happy, and may his city ptoperty now
worth perhaps $50,000 be doubled, as it likely will in ten years.

PREFACE TO SECONP PART.
Whilk the'Publisher acknowledges a debt of gratitude to the busi-
\ public, especially those cities to which he made a short visit, for
their unusually liberal patronage to his " Directory and Advertiser," he
regrets, with them, that the work could not come out in time for the
fall trade.
The first delay, (about one month) waa produced by the breaking of
the Mill with which we had contracted for the paper. . The second delay
(three weeks) was produced by the sale of the oflBce and the organizing
a new firm, the term of the old firm having expired on the Ist July by
contract. Third delay (about two months) was produced by the preva-
lence of Yellow Fever. Those who could leave the city, did so ; and
those who remained, did little else than nurse the sick and " bury their
dead out of their sight." Our patrons wiH see at once that each of these
delays was beyond our control. Every cffo-f \\\ onr j.'A\cr and also of
the Publishere was put into constant re qni-^itioh to h-Aivt itoiit ivs e^rly
as possible.

respectable blowing from many of the best Counties, but tbey are not
as fall as we hoped to'see them. We have copies enough to send one
gratis to the Clerks of the Court for each County of the above named
States. By this means the objeotsof the publication will be no^ folly
understood and appreciated.
On the fir^t day of January, in the year ofour Lord One Thousand
Eight Hundred and Fifty-Six, precisely and simultaneously, we want the
Clerks of every County in the above named States, including also Vir-
ginia, Maryland and Missouri, to send to us a list of merchants, (names
and firms) of every class; Practising Attorneys at Law; Practbing
Physicians ; Manufacturers, (by machinery) ; High Schools and Col-
leges, with the Principals of each; Banks; Insurance Companies;
Railroads; Shipping and Mining Companks, with the two chief offic«rs
of each. Also, the names of the Principal Hotels and Proprietors of
each ; together with a brief Editorial notice of the Educational, Agricul-
tural and Commercial condition and prospects of each county and city,
as will not &il to be of general use.
We also want all leading business men in all the towns and cities
North, South, East and West, to send in their cards on the day and date,
above named, so that early in the ensuing Spring, (1856) we may issue
from the large Book Concern in the city of Nashville, the most useful
and magnificent Commercial work the world has ever produce^.
Please take due notice thereof and govern yourselves accordingly.
Thirty years of constant labor in the Gospel Ministry have produced a
^sease of the throat, rendering us wholly unable to fill that high office
for the last ttro years. We are not competent to write a volume of ser-
mons, even if such a work were in demand. Yet we feel an earn^t
desire to be use&d ; to serve the country that gave us birth and liberty,
to promote its prosperity and happiness ; and at the same time to edu-
cate A fianily*of children {only ten) six of them daughters, so that they
also nay be useful and happy. Please pardon this modest allusion to
ourself, Here, now, is our Book, setting forth our plan to serve you.
Let it and the humble author receive both your indulgence and co-
operation and oblige your obedient servant, &c.,

Incidents of our visit to Richmond will be long and pleasingly re-
na^bered. The hospitalities of John P. Pollard, Esq., Propjrietor of
the Exchange Hotel. Abetter house and better landlord we have not
met any wh^re. Long may he share the confidence and patronage of
the city and the travelling public.
The generous courtesies of J. A. Cowardin, Esq., Editor and
Proprietor <rf the "Daily Di^atoh,'* deserve a tnbute of thanks which
we have not words t^ expvesau After iptrodttciog us to a numb^ of the
first gentlemen of the city, ne gave us a flattering notide in his paper ;
next he took us into one of those fine hacks of which there are so many
in Richmond, and showed us through and around the whole city, the
Railroad Depots, of which there ave four, the l^p Dock» a stupendmia
work by the State, the beautiful prospect from .Church Hill of th«

O SOUTHERN BUSINESS DIRSCTORT AND
Lastly we call attention to the cards of merchants, manufacturen,
&c., for Richmond. Many of them are the largest and safest dealers in
the city and worthy of the fullest confidence. Here the new districts of
trade opening up from the South and West may he supplied with every
thing in the line of merchandize and manufacture, wholesale and retail,
from an Axe or Nail, to a Locomotive Engine of the largest size. The
Imports and Exports of Richmond are heavy and constantly increaslDg.
The deepening of the James River, so as to admit the larger claas of
Steamers, together with its magnificent Railroad enterprises, already
penetrating the richest districts of the South and West, cannot fail to
make it a great city soon. In healthfulness and beauty ij is not sur-
passed by any in the Union.

PETERSBURG, VA.
PmssBURo, situated at the foot of the Falls of James Kiver, at the
head of tide water, and twenty-two miles south of 'Richmond. It is al-
so within nine miles of shipping, with which it is connected by Bail
Roads.
The wealthy and enterprising population of Petersburg, (now about
20,000, including- the &ctories and suburbs,) are taking^ the proper
steps to make it both a Commercial and Manufacturing City. The
Wholesale Trade, as may be seen by reference to the cards for this City,
is considerable, and has recently much increased.
Its manufacturing advantages are superior to any «ity of its size in
the South.
There is but one large Seminaiy of learning here ; there are many
prirate schools*-
The AciiDEMio and CoLLBGiATii Seminary for young Ladies, by
Rev. A. J. Leavenworth, (originated by himself,) has grown up within i
the last ten years to an Institution of the firsl standing in the country.
Here are young, ladies from Brooklyn, New- York, and Bridgeport,
Conn.^ also, as far South as Alabama and Bouth-CaroliDa.
The proprietor is now making a large addition to his pleasant build-
ings, so that by next winter at least fifty more young ladies can be ad-
mitted into this superior Seminary. • '
We invite the attention of those who wish to give their daughtprs
the best advantages the country can aiford, to this Institution. S(.*j

NORFOLK, VA.
Present population of Norfolk about 18000. In addition to the
Bailroad which will soon be completed to Petersburg, and thence con-
necting with the great roads South and West, surveys are now being
made to build an air line road from this to New York city.
We close our notice of Norfolk by calling attention to the business
cards here inserted They have not only a high reputation for integ-
rity and 'Punctuality, but they do a large and accommodating
business.
The following gentlemen showed us much kindness during the two
days we spent in their city. Messrs. Allyn, Rose & Capps, took us
through their Hardware establishment, occupying a large four story
building. They have, as yM will see by their card, a o^ebrated saw,
which every man in the lumber business ought to have.
\
Next we passed through Mr. Wm. D. Robert's "Copper and Stove
Works." Here you will find a large stock, consisting of every stjrle
and variety of house keeping ^oods.
.. Mr. R. H.' Stevens' "Temple of Fashion," you will see as soon as you
enter Market Square. And when you see it, walk right in and go up to
the fourth story. Here you will see hats "what are hats." Ask for
that machine with one hundred and forty-five keys, invented in
France, and used for fitting a man's head perfectly,
, The Editors of the Five Daily Papers gave us a kindly greeting jstnd
a right hearty good speed in our work. Such Editors do much to
build up a city. If you wish any notices or advertising, c^ on them.
Tb^n iiyou need any thing in the way of Drugs and Medicines, call on
Messrs. King A? Toy. By this time, you will want something good to
eat. Just enquire for Walter's City Hotel. This is one of the oMest
Hotels in the city and just as good as you want. From New Orleans to
Boston you will not find larger Ice C^am^than her^. And when you
Sit ready to leave, if you are bound Northward, just step down and sea
essrs. Mith & Brother, and take passage on one of their fi^e steani
ships to New York.
' ' ' . ' ' " / - ^
Also, attention to the card of Lewis Salusbury, Manufacturer of For-
ikMare, ht. His well established reputation, his large and glowing
trttde; entiUe him to dl, even mot^e^ than his card olaims. ■•- v^
I^Sherwood k Young's^tahlishment presentsone of the most impoung
of all the Warehouses', situated on the rirer. On entering the harbor
from the river or canal, and from the opposite side of the river, it looks
the most commodious.

TfeB principal city of the Stftte,*aiid the third city- of the ttWted
8tftti)s \t population, is, situated on the North side oiPatareco nvet,
fourteen nlues from its entrance into Chesapeake bay, one hundred vc&e^
southwest of Philadelphia, and forty miles from Washington. It is
built 6n uneven ground, bending around the innermost of three har-
bors, whidb successively diminish in space and depth, llie outer one
is twenty-two feet deep, ond mile and a quarter long, from its entmuca
into the second, which is fifteen feet deep, half a mile wide, aud one
utile long. Vessels of about 600 tons enter this harbor^ while the third,
which enters the city, is deep enough for vessels of two htmdred tous.
Jte outer entrance is defended by fortifications, which repulsed a Britis|i
fleet of sixteen ships in 1814.
The appearance of the city, when viewed from the water, is impos-
ing. The most conspicuous and fashionable part is built on a bold, but
not Bleep ^vatiou; and the steeples, monuments and domes, with
m^oeh it is crowned, greatly, relieve and beautify the scene. WiAin
the town, the atreets and buUdings exhibit various degree of ibteiiity
. and regularity, when viewed from different points. In the construction
of the houses, convenience and solidity appear to have been sttidiid| "
rather than magnificence; but the abodes of wealthy citizens exhibit fhe
same elegance here as in other great cities of the Union. Many of the
pnbfie atffoeturas «re also tfpk&did and epstly* Balthuomhaabden
nanedtbe ''Mmmnettliai City,'' chiefly, from the two gmat ns^oftumeBta
it contains. Washii^ton monument is a Doric oolumn, of whi<» aiarble,
180 feet high, resting on a base of the same materia], 20 feet high, and
surmounteaby a statue of the man it comniemorates. Ascending by a
winding staircase, within the column, the visiter behold^ a wide pros-
pect of the city, and its varied environs. Battle monument, abo of
white marble, is ^2 feet high, and was erected in memory of the pa-
triots wha fe}l in defence of this city against ^e Britiah, in X8JL4.
Many of the churches are r^naiicable foi- nchitectttial beauty. .\The
court house, state penitentiary, custom house, St. Mary's college, and
the halls of numerous literaiy and scientific institutions, are among the
other important public buildings. The exchange is 225 feet wide, 141
feet deep, and 115 feet to the top of the dome. Gcdonnades of the
Ionic order, made of Italian marble, extends across its east and west
fironts.
Water is supplied in abundance from fountains in the city, and from
Jones's fall, in the vicinity, by an aqueduct and pipes. ' '
In manufactures, as in commerce, Baltimore ranks with the great
dities of America, Jones's fall (a small creek dividing the city, and
spanned by severd beautiful bridges) and the Patapsco, afford numer-
ous excellent seats for mills and manufactories of various '^inds.

We invariably answer letters by return mail, enclosing the lickets
in a proper envelope, observing the strictest confidence, and after the

PHILADELPHIA, PA.
The first city of Pennaylvania, ia population, wealth and maRttfiMi-
tures, and the second in the United States, is situated on a peniosida^.
fonjaed by the confiuence of Delaware and Schuylkill rivers. The iatf
was laid dut with beautiful regularity, in 16«3, by its illustrious founder,
William Penn, who ^ave it its name, signifying "brotherly Ipve*" Many
of the noble trees which grew on the site, are now commemorated by
the names of the streets running east and west, as Chesnut, Walnat,
Pine, <bc., while those crossing them are designated by numerals.
The ground on which Philadelphia is built is even, rising gently
from eadi river, along which it extends for sev.eral miles. On tiie Del-
aware, the scenery is monotonous., but the water being deeper Uwiq that .
of the other river, the eommeree and business of the city tends to tiii»
side; while the Schuylkill affords pleasmg landscapes and agreeable .
places of residence. Many of the smaller v«»els, sloops and boats,
here congregate^ laden with coal, and other products of the valley of
the Schuylkill; this part of the city is now rapidly increasing in w^th
and business. No feature of Philadelphia is more strikii^ than the
regularity and neatness of its streets. The latter peculiarity is chiefly
owing to the convenient grade, which allowis the water to descend and
find its way through sewers and other channels^ into the Delaware.
The houses, also, are more remarkable for neatness and solidity, than
for splendor and show; they are mostly of brick, adorned witheteps aiid
baaenients^ white marble, which the neighboring quarries furnish in
abutidance, and of fiae quality. Of this material, a number of the pub*
lie bualdiliigfl are constructed, am<Hig which are the United States Marin^
Hospital, the Pennsylvania Bank, the Girard Bank, ihe building fiw-
merly occupied by the United States Baak, ftud the Girard CoUegf,
wh^h deaerves more than a passing mmition. A bequest of $2,000,000^
with, grounds beautifully dtutited on an elevationnear the city, waa
made in ISai. by Stephen Girard, an eccentric, though wealthy citis^a
of Pfailiiddphia, for the purpose of Ending ai college {qx orj^hans..
With part of these funds, has been erected one of the most magnifio^at
fltmcturea in the United States. The college consists <^ five buildinga^
the main edifice in the centre is devoted to the educatioQr of pupila and
students of varioua ages and acquirements; the oilier four, two on each
aide, are residences for the instructors and studente. The whole ia<^
richly-wrought white marble. The central structure is 2X8 feet Icogt
and IBOf foet wide, surrounded by 34 Corinthtan colunuwy ^^. feet high,
and six feet m diameter. The iuterior is in a corresponding style of.
af»lendor. The four other buildisgs are each 125 feet long, and 5d 6et
wide*.;. .■.-..,,•
Another building in Philadelphia, of less magnificence, pi^ebaibly ex-
citiea gfteater interest. This is tb^ did state house, or Independende ball,
where ihe Deehiratioa of Ajseriean Independence was decreed and
aignedby the first continental congress. The bell which annouiked to

preserved in the capola; it bears the prophetic inscription : ^Trodaim '
Liberty throughout this land unto all the inhabitants thereof." These
words were imprinted on the b«U long before the use which was afller-
wards made of it could have been known. In this building are
a statiie of Wadiington, in wood, and many other reHos of tiie
Revolution.
PfaihidelphTa containl^ a krge sumbw of important public buil^nga

institiitions fbr the deaf and for the. blind, and several other duoitable
establishments; Besides these, there are tiie Aaerican PUIosofAieal-

CINCINNATI, OHIO.
The ** Queeo City of the West,'^ in population, commerce, and general
enterprise, is situated on Jt^e north bank of Ohio^v^r, ^94 miles from its
entrance into the Mississippi, 1,447 miles from Kew Orleans, and 492
miles from Washington. It occupies two terraces, or even surfaces, the
higher rising by a regular grade, about 60 feet above ibfi lower. '; Clreat
uniformity characterizes the streets, and the city is more splendid than
. 'H appears from the water. The surrounding country is ^ pleasant, fer-
. ^le valley, bounded by undnlating slopes and hills, which' command de-
^ Bghtful views'of the city, the river, and ils^anks. Near Cincinnati, are
several thriving Viflagcfeand towns, which are connected with it in pros-
perity and interests. Like most rapidly increasing American cities, Cin-
cinnati exhibits great dirersity iti the appearance of its buildings. Some
are of wood and cheap material ; others are solid, durable, and splendid.
Eztefisive WardibuseSi stores, anddwdlings, adbrn^t^e 6oiD^aet>central
portions ; toward the outskirts, the buildings are more scattered and
less comely.
The public buildings are numerous and generally elegant, consisting
of from seventy to eighty chanches ; market houses ; a court house, 120
feet high to the top of the dome ; several banks, asylums, and hospitals;
large and splendid hotels; pnbMc schools; libraries; the Oh^^iiatory,
•flcteatifie aiMi literary institntions. Cinoianali, St. Xavier and Wooimtd
aKdleges,and Lane seminary, are located in the city, and exhibit fiieJugk
r^ard £>r edueation w|iich is eherished in -the west.
.' ,Tbe^anufiEictare6 of Cincinnati inchide a gi^ai ratiety of artidasof
B^eeBsUy, comfort, and luxury. Natnre has supplied no remarkaUo fas-
ter privileges ; yet enterprise has constructed extensive appliances for the
prosecution of manufactures. Several canals, approaching the city from
different points, by m.emis of locks and dams, p^at^rmthse functions of
rivers in respect to industry and trade. Cincinnati is the market and
emporium of a wide extent of country, exchanging its'mantifacttires for
vast numbers of hdgs and other agrieuttural products. / This extensive
trade is fs^ilttated by the numerous natural and artificial cbaiMicll^ of
commumcation from various points. Prom its poskion on the OWo, i*
commands the comtnerce of its valley with that of the Mississippi, whfle
Licking river eiit^rs the Ohio opposite the city, after meandering 230
-miles in Kentucky. White water and Miami rivers, with their navig^
tion improved by extensive cands, largeJy/conlHibutB to ii^^^im^ ^^^

jar Burnet House, N. West cor. op Third and Vine Strbbm. —
This is undoubtedly the most spacious, and probably the best hotel in its
intericH* and domestic arrangements of any in the world. The building,
includjng the terrace, is 212 feet on third street, and 200 to its rear^'on
Burnet street. Its style of architecture is the Brachetea Italian. It is
6 stories, in height, with a dome 42 feet in diameter, which is 100 feet
from the basement floor. The Observatory commands a fine view of the
city, the Ohio river, and the Kentucky scenery beyond. The entire house
contains 342 rooms, all properly lighted and ventilated. It is central to
all the different railroads running out of the city, and only two squares
from the steamboat landing. Since the Railroad has been finished to
Louisville, it is the most central and conveniently located hotel in the
city.

we convert a Corn Mill mto a Stock Feed Mill; but a few minutes work
to put it on or take it off.
We manufacture portable Mills single and double geared (best quality
of Pi-ench burrs,) to grind Wheat, Corn and Stock Feeds, calculated for
steam, water or horse power. These Mills have been run by steam and
horse power in competition against the other make of Mills of our city,
at our State Fairs, and have never failed to carry off the first premium —
on one occasion was awarded a beautiful silver medal. Our Mills also
took two first premiums, as the best Mills, at two Annual Fairs of our
Mechanics' Institute.
Also, Portable Saw Mills, to be run by steam, water or horse power.
This Mill was exhibited in operation by horse power, at the Ohio Sta^
Fair, in 1850, when it was awarded a premium and a splendid silver
medal.
Also, different kinds of Portable Horse Powers, and Steam Engines.
All our articles, for ease of operation, simplicity, usefulness, and dura-
bility, are surpassed by none now in use.
All our articles are warranted as represented — or no sale — at our cost
of transportation and the money refunded.
For a full descriptbn and testimony of merit and usefulness we refer
those interested to our pamphlet, to be had at our factory, where we take
pleasure to explain cacb article.
ISAAC STRAUB <fe CO.
Note. — Mr. Kimball, the partner of J. H. Burrows, while exhibiting a
Burrows Mill at our State Fair, last fall, was boisterous about his Mills
and courageously entered into a verbal agreement with me to grind corn,
thus: Whoever grinds the most, regarding quality and quantity, was
to be the owner of both Mills, at each and every trial :
First Trial.— Straub to run an 18 inch Mill ;
Burrows & Co., to run a 20 inch Mill.
Second Trial. — Straub to run a 22 inch Mill;
Burrows <fe Co,, to run a 24 inch Mill.
Third Tiial— Straub to run a 26 inch Mill;
Burrows & Co., to run a 30 inch Mill.
When the pinch came that boisterous courage jumped out. To the
above I now append a challenge to grind cob feed out of whole cars of
com :
I will run my 1:8 inch ^'Queen of the South," with a cob-breaker at-
tachment; the same article that took the premium at the Ohio Stat^
Fair, last fall, against 24 inch Burrows Mill and Wm. Stewart's Ohio
and Keutwd^ Stock Feed Mill, both to be run at once; . aad < if yott are
^pre^heusive of a ri9|cy business, you have my entire approbation to run
Mr. Fomeroy's Corn Crusher as an auxiliary. Should liy single airticlp
JGuI to grind equal in quality a^nd quantity to the combined productioni;
of the two or three Mills, (just as you please,) then you cftn draw a few
Jiundred, dollars as stakes put up.
Come boys, don't be cowards — there is nothing like walking straight

MERCANTILE WRITING FLDID,
Manufactured by JAMES J. BUTLER, Agent,
No. 39 Vine-street^ comer of Commereey Cincinnati^ 0.
To whom all orders addressed will be promptly executed, 20 per cent-
cheaper than Arnold's, wholesale or retail.
The properties peculiar to this FluiH consist : Fix^. — In its great
Fluidity, never becoming thick or gummy in the Inkstand. Second. —
It will never under any circumstances mould. Third. — Its changes from
a greenish blue to a ^eep, permanent black color, which no length of
time will fade or destroy, nor can it ever be obliterated by any chemi-
cal process, without destroying the paper. Fourth. — It always flows
freely from the pen, and is warranted fully equal, in every respect, to the
celebrated Arnold's Fluid, so universally known and approved. Fifth. —
It is much cheaper, and within the reach of all.
This Fluid, from being recently prepared, will not when fixst opened
and used, attaih its deepest black tint. It may require a day or two
when first spread on the paper; but each day that it is exposed to the
atmosphere in the stand, lessens the time gradually to a few hours. It
may be used with Steel, Gold or Quill Pens. Where a steel pen is ex-
dlnsively used, it changes rapidly in the stand to a dark green; this is
caused by the action of the iron upon the chemical combination. Th|8
Fluid will be found to copy well, if the copy is taken immediately after
it is written, thereby dispensing with the necessity of using a separate
copying ink. Its easy flow makes it desirable, as all inks prepared ex-
pressly for that purpose are unpleasant to write with, from their ten-
dency to thicken up in the stand. This ink will be found to be Indelible^
and may be used for marking on linen or cotton cloth, if used in the
same manner as inks made expressjy for that purpose. It wiU bi^v found
best to apply a hot iron upon the cloth immediately after wmiang.

The foregoing cut is a perspective view of tbis great moral reform-
er ; the production of A. B. Latta, it has met al] the ends for which it
was desired. Cincinnati now has three of these machines, built by A.
B. A E. LATTA, Buckeye Works, Cincinnati. Boston has one. The
demand for these ENGINES is greater than the builders can supply.
Evbry City must sooner or later use steam for this purpose ; it is found
that steam costs only one dime, #here hand labor costs one dollar, thus
showing a saving of 90 per cent. One of these Machines is capable of
doing the work of six of the largest class hand apparatus. The far-
thest thow ever made is 240 feet solid body of water, through 1^ inch
nozzle. To give- a description of this machine is impossible here, steam
is raised and the engine ready for work in five minutes. It requires 4
men -and 4 horses to man it. It is impossibje for any one to appreciat0
it without seeing it.
Any information can be obtained by addr^teing A. B. LATTA, at

SOUTHERN BUSIN£8S DIRECTORY AND
BURNET HOUSE,
CINCINNATI, OHIO.
THIS FIRST CLASS HOTEL enjoys a large run of custom and a
constantly growing reputation. This grows out of the polite and untiring
attentions of the Proprietor, his brother and clerks, the additions
and improvements which are made to the furniture of the several apart-
nrents, the number and attentiveness of the best of servants, and last,
but not least, the good things of the table ; for it must be conceded oy
air who have* stopped here that the table of the Burnet House has no
superior in the West or South.
The Parlors are large and richly furnished; the Chambers whether for
families or single persons, are large, well furnished and well veniilA^*
Comfortable entertainment can be provided in this house for six hundred
persons. Having tried most of the first class Hotels in the Unitied
States, we have found none better than the Burnet House.— Editor.

CITY OF NEW YORK.
The city of New York must be seen to be appreciated. The visitor
will ieel, when he sees it, that no notice or description had given him &
just conception of it. We thought it was no place for a lounger. Eve-
ry man you meet, seenis to be in a hurry. Even the la^^ man, if lie
ever gets so far from home, sympathizing with the fast ISew Yorkers,
will find himself in a hurry before he knows it. We will not attempt a
detailed notice of this metropolis, whose population now reaches nearly^
700,000, and whose commerce and manufactures outstrip any city in*
North America.
We commend to the thousands of our patrons and readers in the
South and West, the select cards of this great city.
J^ To the manufacturers and wholesale dealers of New York, tlus
work will be fouhd of great value and convenience. Of the eleven States
represented, six of them are complete, giving the address of the'mer-
chants of ever j/ county y town, village and country store. It is a work of
immense labor, such as has never before been gotten up for the South.
J^ We invite the attention of the business community of N. York,
to our agent, Mr. R, J. Abbott, at No. 346 Broadway, where they oaa
be supplied with copies, or make orders for the next volume, to be is-
sued in the spring of 1856.
JB^ Among the list of select cards for New York, we invite attention
to that of the Smithsonian House, Sydney Kopman, Proprietor, 604
Broadway. This is a new and elegant establishment, conducted on the
European plan, Mr. K is one of those polite and amiable gentlemen
whom you have only to know to love. If you stop once at his hQvm^
you will wish to stop again. An elegant room, finely furnished with
¥^ater, gas light, <&;c, at 50 cents per day, is cheap on Broadway.

that took the first premium at the New York Crystal Palace Exhibition.

CURE'S PATENT STEAM AND FIRE
B EG IT L A T 0 B S .
THESE Steam and Fire Kegulators having been thorouglily tbsted,
for the last 12 months, by some of the first engineers of different States,
are now offered to the public at large — an agent for the sale of which
will be found in all the principal cities throughout the Union. A su-
perb Gold Medal was awarded to the patentee at the last Fair of the
Ajnerican Institute, and was, by the Examiners, thought to be one of
the most necessary and useful inventions that had of late be^n brought
before the American public. The necessity of some inventiontfor regu-
lating dampers, and thereby keeping the steam at an even hejghtb,in8ur-
ing to a very great degree, against the fearful explosions and loss of life,
that so often attend the irregularity of the steam — independent of the
time and trouble of attending the dampers — the great saving of fuel,
(as no more fuel can be burnt than actually necessary to give what
steam is wanted,) has always been acknowledged to be of die utmost
importance. Although many trials have been made to get up some-
thing to answer the purpose, from the first experiments of the celebrated
Watts dE Perkins, down to the present time, yet nothing has been found
to answer the purpose, till the recent success of the ingenius, and justly
celebrated Clark, in bringing out this Regulator, being now introduced
to the public.
We are receiving testimonials from those having them in use, speak-

ing in the highest terms of them, ivhich we shall be happy to enclose
to all who wish further information in regard to them.
The wonders they perform in controlling the steam — saving the grate-
bars and furnace^onts — besides the preventing of the straining of the
boilers — the time and trouble of watching the damper, and the safety
guaranteed in their use — saying nothing about the great saving of fujy
which is from 15 to 30 per cent. — should induce all who are using
jsteam to give them a trial. '
They are very simple in their construction, and can be applied to boi-
lers of every size, (having different sizes of them,) from the smallest
to the greatest, whether stationary or otherwise. Mki'^^k

The Hydromagen is a valuable disoorery for protecting the feet from
dJtmp or cold, and therefore a preventite of many lung diseases, without
any doctoring whatever. IPhe Hydromegen is in the form of a sole, ani
worn inside the boot or shoe. Its medicated charaeter is a powerful aa-
tidote to disease.
For gentlemen, it will be found agreeable, warm and healthy, to wear
in the coldest or rainiest Weather, as the foot cannot become wet if thn
Hydromagen is inserted.^ Ladies may wear the lightest soled boots or
shoes in the most inclement weather with impunity; while consamption,
BO prevalent among the young of otir country, may be thwarted by their
general adoption. They entirely supercede overshoes^ as the latter
cause the feet to perspire in a very unhealthy manner ; and, besideii
are not dangerous wear to pedestrians in icy weather, like India rubbers^ .
While the latter cause the feet to appear extremely large, the Hydroma*
gen, being a mere thin slice of cork prepared, peculiarly placed ipside,
does not increase the sisse of the boot, or cause the foot to Appear untidy.
To children they are extremely valuable, as they may engage in exer*
dse with coafTort and healthy effects. Their expense is so slight as to
scarce need mention ; besides, those who patronize them will find their '
yearly doetor^s bills much diminished thereby.
Ab the Hydromagen is becoming more known, its sale is increasing •
to an almost incredible extent. Last year, in London, Manchester, Bir-
mingham, Liverpool, Glasgow, Leeds, Dublin, Paris,. Antwerp, Ham-
burgh, and Berlin, our sales reached 1,732,450 pairs of cork soles. This
year the number will far surpass that.
Ask the Pa(iulty their opinion of their value aS" a prerentiTe (br 0(Kigh»|

being carried in a trunks or held upon the lap and u$ed by persons too
feeble to sit at the Piano for practice. It is valuable also in mastering
difficult passages of music, by enabling the learner to practice without
having the ear vitiated by the improper tones or bad harmony of un-
skilful execution. This article was made for Madame Crandall, whose
execution upon the Piano is elegant and expressive.
While on this subject it is proper to remark that Messrs. Nardin dp
Comstock are manufacturing as good and elegant Pianos as can be

PROVIDENCE, R. L
The capital, with Nevport^ of the State of Rhode Island, is the second
city in population, of New Otigknd, is situated at the hand of Narra-
ganset bay on either side of Providenbe river, 42 miles southwest of Bos-
ton, and 173 mile* northeast of N^w York. The oMer part of the city
lies Oil the east side of the river, and though many of the streets partake
of Ihat irregularity which seei^is peculiar to the olden times, they contaitt
many splendid stores, warehouses, dwellings and public builJina^s. As-
cending by an abrupt acclivity from the river, the streets and houses be-
come more regular, many of the residences biing of a superior style of
elegance and structure, and affording delightful views of the harbor and
the surrounding country. Orownini^ the elevation, are the buildings of
Brown University, a flourishing institulion. Crossing the river by one of
the bridges, the west part of the city is laid out with more regularity
upon ground less uneven. 'Here is the '^ Arsade,^^ the largest and most
important edifice in tii& pity^, built of granite, apd adorned with a Gre-
cian-Doric portico and columns. It is 225 feet long, 80 feet deep, and
72feethigb.
TUo. name of the city, which it received from the Rav. Roger Williamsi
its founder, may serve to indicate its proaperity. Its location upon a
spacious and convenient harbor, sufficient for a great number of the
GSNSRAL COMMSROIAL ADVERTISSB. 115
I largest vessels, the manufacturing facilities of the surrounding districts,
their facility of access to the city, and the. enterprising spirit which haa
I improved and adapted these advantages, are the sources of its increasing
wealth and population. The Blackstone canal^ beginning at Worcester,
and winding through the productive regions and manufacturing towns
of Massachusetts, brings large stores to its market. On Pawtucket riverg^
and the other streams of Providence county, are extensive factories of
! cotton, wool, machirery, calico printing and dyeing ; and within the city-
are also various similar establishments. These are chief]/ kept in opera*
'9 tion by capitalists of Providence, and employ more than 13,000,000 of
capital. This city communicates by railroad with Boston, Worcester,
and Stoningtdn, and, in a great measure has dispensed with, the steam-
boat lines which traversed Long Island Sound and the Atlantic to New
York, Boston, and oth«r places.
-' The population in 1810, was 10,071; in 1830,10,833; in 1840,
r 23,171 ; in 1850, 41,513 The following is the rate of progression in
I. population since the year 1830: In 1830, 15,941; in 184 J, 23,l70;
^ in 1845, 31,753 ; in 1850, 41,613 ; in '52, 45,000 ; in '54, 50,000.

PORTLAND, MAINE.
This flourishiog city, and seat of justice of Cumberland Oouni, it
pleasantly situated on a peninsula, at the southwest extremity of Casco
bay, facing the Atlantic, from which it presents a beautiful view. It is
50 miles southwest of Augusta, 110 northeast of Boston, and 546 milei
from Washington. The harbor is one of the best in the United Stales,
being capacious and protected by the Islands at its ^entrance, from the
severity of the northeast storms, which prevail on this coast. A light
" house, 12 fe^t high, built in 1790, still in good preservation, stands oil
Portland Head. On an eminence, in the northeast part of the city, is
an observatory, 70 feet high, which affords a fine view of the neighbor*
( ing harbor and Islands, and the surrounding country, extending to the
White mountains in New Hampshire. Railroa(^ extend from thi^ city
to the valley of the Androscoggin, Augusta, Portsmouth, Boston, &c*y
and steamboats and packets ply to Boston and other ports, during the
j^ season of navigation. Cumberland and Oxford canal communicatea
^ with Sebago and Long Ponds in the interior of the county. Portland
>j; lias an extensive inland and coasting trade, and exports large quantities
11^ of lumber, ice and provisions, to the West Indies and elsewhere. The
4siij is regularly laid out with wide streets, some of which are lined with
beautiful shade trees, and handsome dwellings. The hospitality and in-
telligence of the citizens, and the sea-breezes by which the city is fanned^
render it a pleasant resort in the warm season.
The population in 1790, was 2,240; in 1800, 3,677; in 1810, 7,16fl;
in 1820, 8,581; in 1830, 12,601; in 1840, 15,218; in 1850, 26,819.
JS^Grand Trunk] Railway — From Portland, Maine, to Montreal^
I Canada. — Express Trains leave Montreal and Portland daily, (Sun-
days excepted,) passing the White Mountains, and many other objects
<>{ interest to those who travel for^ health or pleasure.
The ei^tire distance (about 3 00 miles,) is passed from breakfast to
supper, over one of the best built roads in the United States, presenting
at the same time, much variety and sublimity in mountain scenery.
S. P. Bidder, General Manager, will accept our thanks and copies of

* Among the things that most interested our attention, was that
of the Piano Forte Establishment of Andrews & Robinson, whose beau-
tiful site is the admiration of all strangers. We were attracted to enter
and explore their extensive manufactory, and in going through the diffe*
rent departments, observed the many facilities for making the instrume|^t
in the cheapest, most durable and finished manner. Through the po-
liteness of Mr. Robinson, who, we have since learned, has served an ap-
prenticeship inOilbert^s Manufactory, Boston, and who, from his musi-
cal experience in teaching the piano^ in that city for many years, we
judge to be of eminent ad vantage, in such a concern — through him w#
were led to examine the many advantages they claim over all competi-
tors. We will not enter in detail of the many little improvements, both

This attachment is<so oOmtrneted as to produce a soft roelodions toner

the Piano corresponding, to those on the swell of an Organ, are pro»
Sliced, which mast essentially be of very great service, not only ta iho
piano performer, but as an accompaniment in sustuning the voice. In
hd, the whole instrument is in perfect subjection to the will of the pec-
former in expressing delicate or fbrdble passages in a composition ; and
we may safely prophecy, upon its merits being known, a warm reeeptiaa
with the musical world, and an extensive sale for the inventoia of thi$
novelty. See Card.
We ranst not omit in oor notice of this establishment, to mentien m
nnmlyer of interesting relics shown ns, brought from Europe by Mr.
BobinsoQ, whose great admiration for Robt Bums^secured him while
in Scotland, the gift of a wooden platter, or cake dish, once used by the
poet, obtained from a Scotchman, residing in Muckline, near Mossed :
also, the autograft of Mrs. Begg, the sister of Robt Burns — a piece of
the House of bhakspeare^-^of Geothe Chair, obtained in Frankiort, Ger*

the notice of the (Virions in the scientific world as well as the Piano
Perf«rrtBer and Vocalist. The peculiarities of the *'Swell Mute" are that
the tones are prolonged beyond their usual length in soft and delicate
passages, thus bearing up the voice, yet not overpowering it; fiom this
it is made to sound out into full power Uke the ot-gan, then to diminiafc
at the pleasure of the perforitoer, varying and' gr^kig e&ctfc at his Will in
the most perfect manner; added to these, also, is the effect of the Mnte
on the Violin produced, and hence its name, *'Swell Mute.'^ And still
another advantage is that of the beginner^s being enabled to practice so
softly as not to disturb the disinterested with necessary repetitions, yet
to obtain fully the meaning of the exercise.

Montreal is the largest city in the British Provinces of North Ame-
rica. It has ajpopulation of about 60,000, about one half French and
the other half English and Iri^h. It has Railroad connection with the
principal cities of the United States, which, with the fine Bav%ati(ffi of
the St. Lawrence river, will jtistrfy the prophecy of it» future grmtneas.
It has many large Churches, Balls, Public Buildings and Hotels^ Hio

§»ty Queen Victoria. We shall long remember the dinner M this

on this route. Here young ladies perform the wonderful fetfe of riding
on horse back npand down Mouni Washington or Mount Moilah. Thia

we stopped here, Miiss Betty Sheets, of Indianopolis, Ind., and Miss
Jenny Harcison, of North Bend, Ohio, grand daughter of Gen. Wm.
Harrison. Here you get the real Mountain Trout The Glenn House
recently built and fitted up in good taste and kept in fine style by Mr.

nings. Hef:e you may enjoy both the fun of taking the Trout and the
luxury of eating them, done up in the best manner. It is an object of
•}(^iting interest to see these large ponds of clear water pent uf by ^tii-

Abdominai Supporter and Hernia Truss. These health and life f>t^

yille, we could furnish quite a number of valuable testimonials in itshr
Tor; but the ro(»desty or diffidence of the inventor, or bis great aven»ioil
to all humbuffs^ has prevented him from permitting even a newspaper
advertisement, though uiged by his friends to do so. The card re-
ferred to in this work is the first published by him* We believe tbe
Truss and Supporter are by far superior and the most valuable ariicles
of the sort ever invented.
We have known the patentee for several yearn, during which time ha
has uniformly sustained the character Of an honesty bonorabld and
Christian gentleman. 'For his sake, but mdre for the eake of affiioted

Wrought Iron Cooking Stove, called
THE TENNESSEEAN,
Hade of the best and heaviest iron, and admirably adapted for the
use of Families, Hotels, Steamboats and Plantations.
The Tennesseean has now been before the public for ^ve years, and if
not as new as some, it has another advantage quite as great, viz : a well
earned reputation and a rising credit. It has been doing the work of
many hundreds of families for several years, and it may be paid to have
established itaelf in business. Competition and change have done it no
hurt. Like an old and well known trading House that retains its regu-
lar custom, while new ones are springing up around it, so this stove has
held on its way. No stove could thus steadily and permanently prosper,
that had not sterling qualities — the true element of success. The Ten-
nesseean started on right principles, and has had no occasion to stop for
improvements. Tiiose who have used it, are determined still to use it,
without modification or change. It is brought forward as the same sub-
stantial, convenient, business like stove that has served the public so
,well heretofore, and that has done iU full share in gaining for our estab-
lishment the reputation it enjoys of keeping the best Cookino; Stoves in
the market. SNOW, MAOKENZIli & CO., Nashville.

COMPOUND SYRUP OF
SARSAPAHILIA
AND
lODmS OF POTJl^Ju
In presenting to the notice and acceptance of tbe Medical Profession
and of the public generaUj, the above preparation, tbe subecriber doei
not seek the benefit of a patent right to enhance the value of his ar-
ticle; nor does he wish to conceal frona any the knowledge of its ingre-
dients, in order to gain public confidence and favor. It separates itself
from, and should not be classed with the innumerable Patent Medicines
of the present daj, for the reason that there is no effort made to conceal
its ingredients. On the contrary, the undersigned invited tbe strictest
scrutiny from the Medical Profession, and will, on application being
made to him, take pleasure in communicating to all regular practicing
Physicians every particular in regard to the process of manufacturing it,
Ac. He would simply state, that as an Apothecary, he has been for
years in the habit of preparing, under the direction of gentlemen of emi-
nence in the medical profession, both in Kentucky and Tennessee, the
above Compound. Familiar with the best methods of displaoemeBt,
and with the advanti^es of a large and powerful apparatus, he has
Bought to combine together the tried and known virtues of various ar-
ticles of the Materia Medica in stach pi-oportion, and in such cheap and
durable form, as to furnish a remedy of certain and wonderful eflScafiy>
attested by long experience, not for every disease. that flesh is heir to,
but for a large cmss, a numerous progeny that owe their origin and pa-
rentage to a strenuous Diathesis or Scrofulous taint in the Constitutldn
and in the blood, such as WHITE SWELLING, CHRONIC UL-
CERS of long standing/Obstinate Tetter, Ring Worms, Sore Eye^
Scald Head, Syphilitic Disorders, and other diseases of the skin and
Mobd« that resist the usual treatmelit. He«an substantiate by tb^. jery
best of evidence in our city its efllcacy in Nervous and General DebiWyi
Indigestion' er Dyspej^ia, Inflammation of the Kidneys, RheiitW®**
Ac. &C. It is confidently recommended in diseases peculiar to Fema^^
Buch as Leucorrhoea or Whites, Suppressed Meastraation, Chlorosis or
Green Sickness. Without enumerating further, he is content to state,
and from the result already before bim, ha makes tbe declaration witn
emphasis and in truth, that he believes he is offering to the world a
OXNER4L OOMMBECIAL ▲DYBRTI8SR«-^APPSNDIX. ICJI
BEUABLE AKD CERTAIN fiEMEDY for that formidable eYil<tf
Kings and King of evils, THE SCROFULA, in all its protean sluupaei
"whether confined alone and manifested in the separate tissues of the
body, Or vhether it pervades the entire system.
B. F. WILLIAMS,
CERTIFICATES.
The follo^ving Certificate of the virtues of this preparation, is from a
well known Physician from Dickson county, this State :
Charlotte, Sept. 15, 1852.
MR. B. F. WILLIAMS:
Instances are not rare where the attending physician fails to cure
well confirmed Scrofula. The following memorandum is interesting:
Subject — A girl of 15 or 16 years of age, the attending physician had
failed to cure. An anxious father had consulted me, and from my
knowledge of your preparation, I was constrained to preseribe it. After
taking six bottles she was considered well. She was cured of deep-
seated ulcer and a constant drain of milky tnatter from one or more
sores under the ear. The entire lymphatic system was deeply involved.
This case alon^is well worth the attention of all; but when added to a
long catalogue of cases of great obstinacy, cured by no Panacea, nor
Nostrum, nor Patent Medicine, no Secret, but an invaluable preparation
of Sarsaparilla, Iodide of Potassa, <tc., <fec., well gotten up by the Che-
mist, and made familiar to the intelligent phvsician, it very justly de-
serves a trial by all laboring under any of tlie numerous chronic mala«
dies that a£9ict us.
I R. HUDSON, M.D.
An extract of a letter from a well known gentleman of Sn^th-
land, Ky.
P. S. I can say for your Medicine more than for any preparation I
ever tried, that it has proved satisfactory in all cases, in this part of the
country, and is considered to possess great virtiies. By its use' I have
effected a great cure upon myself, being troubled for five years with
Tetter, and never have I found a remedy to do any good until I was- ;id-
vised to try yours. I am now entirely well; and am satisfied all that ii
necessary is to give it a fair trial. -

COTTON SEED ROCK AND FIRE-PROOF
ROOFING.
The undersigned, citizens of Somerville, Tenn., are well Rcqiuiintedv
with Mr. Duke Williams' Artificial Rock. The Court House yard and
I* the ground floor are layed with it, and have been for several months.
* The County Court of Fayette, Tenn., being thoroughly satisfied that the
Rock would answer a fine purpose, and visa all the inventor claimed for
' ii, employed Mr.Dake Willianis to lay the said ^oor an(jb pave the Coturt
■ House yard.
We know Mr. Williams is a high-minded, honorable man; and we are
satisfied the rock made by him is substantial, and will stand the test of
^* time. We/ have seen it used by Mr.. Reed, who is putting up a large
hotel in Soraerville, in putting in window and door sills, and he is much
pleased with it.

Extract c^ a letter from B. S. Blount, of Houston, Texas, dated
July 16th»l864:
Eighteen months use of the Cotton Seed Rock here has shown that it
makes a pavement vastly superior to brick, and it seems to be getting
harder and better.
J^r The Patent Right of these wonderful inventions has beeti equally
divided between Duke Williams and W. H. Pdindexter, who are now
prepared to sell State, county and local rights.
The following is from the ^aint Louis Weekly News :
COTTON SEED ROCK. / ^
One of the last inventionti which have come to our knowledge is that,
of the artificial rock, for paving and roofing. It is manufactured from
cotton seed and sand, and makes an excellent compound for the pur-
poses intended. It has been satisfactorily tested, and will undoubtedly
eome into general use when its advantages become known. The editor
of the Memphis ^Bagle speaks of this new iz^vention in the following
words: - .
The invention is an extremely valuable one for a great many uses,
especially in regions where natural stone eannot easily or cheaply be
obtained. For many purposes it is preferable, being cheap of manufac*
ture, and as plastic in taking any desired shape as the mortar of the
180 60UTUS1W BuaiN^a pu&scxgBT. and ,
brick mason. We have seen and observed ibis stooe for more than
twelve months past, and believe thai, with proper care in the mannfiic-
ture, it may be made as durable for all ordinary purposes as the common
sandstone of the conntiy.

No medical preparation has ever been presented to the public, under such
favorable auspices as this medicine. It has been received with the most mabkbd
APPROBATION by thomandsj and its celebrity as a remedy for dU diseases of the Lungs
is now becoming notorious. Language cannot describe the promptness and ^
cacy of its action : indeed its salutary effects are truly wonderful. It has been
known to cure the most hopeless cases after the best medical skill, and all
known remedies had failed.
Testimony the most convincing is constantly being received, certifying to
the superior excellence of Dr. C. WILLIAMS*
Compoimd Pnlmonic Balsam of Wild Cherry and Wood Haptha.
It is becoming very popular wherever it has been introduced, and has secured
an enviable reputation ; indeed it has been emphatically pronounced the great-
est remedy for all diseases of the CHEST and LUNGS, that has ever been pre-
sented to the public.
^S^ Sold by all Druggists every where. * Price $1 per bottle, or six bottles
for $6.

DR. C. WILLIAMS & CO.,
Tuscumbia,, Ala.
0S* We cannot speak too highly of the above. Dr. Williams is extensively
and very favorably known as a regular Physician of superior ability.
His Pulmonic Balsam of Wild Cherry and Wood Naptha, has the reputation
deservedly of being one of the best, if not the very best remedy in the world.
Certificates can be furnished in this city from gentlemen of the first respect-
ability ; so in every town and city where it is known.
It should be kept in every family in the United States. We are happy to
learn that the Doctor is making arrangements to manufacture largely, so that
by active agents it may be furnished to every family. — ^Editor.

PROSPECTUS FOR 2d VOLUME.
The second volume of the SoiUhem Bmiims Dirtciory and General Oommereial
AdvertiseTj will be issued in the Spring of 185G, of which due and timely notice
will be given to our Agents in the principal cities in the United States, by
printed circulars, which will be sent, also to the Clerks of the Courts in each
county of the following States, viz : — Maryland, Virginia, North-Carolina,
South-Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Ar-
kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, and Tennessee. The pages of the 2d volume will
be enlarged, bo as to give a full list of the names and firms of all Merchants,
Manufacturers, Banks, Insurance Offices, Attorneys at Law, Physicians, Rail-
road, Steamboat, Steamship, and Mining Companies, and the principal officers
of each. Also, Newspaper and Printing Offices, High Schools, the Population
of each of the principal Towns aiid Cities, leading Hotels, and Watering PJaces -
in the above named States.
' We solicit the agency and co-operation of our Subscribers (now nearly
3000) as well as regular agents, all of whom are authorised to retain 25 per
cent, on all moneys collected from new subscribers.
If each of our present subscribers will procure one additional subscriber, and
the Proprietor and his Agents shall have anything like the success of the last
year, our circulation will not be short of fifteen thousand copies.
Terms to subscribers, one copy $3. One copy with card of five lines or less,
inserted in half measure, $5. One copy with card of ten, or over five lines, $8.
One copy with card displayed to one fourth of page, whole measure, $15. One
copy with card displayed to one half page, $25. One copy with card displayed to
whole page, $50.
j?^^ Price to non-subscribers, $5 per copy after the worlris out.
Agents are authorised to give a short editorial notice, calling attention to
such cards as are displayed to a whole page or even a half page. We continue
our terms precisely as in the first volume, although the pages of the second will
be larger, the Directory part much larger, and the circulation, no doubt, one
hundred per cent, larger.
^^* Do not forget ! We must have returns from all the counties of the
above-named States by the 15th January, 1856 ; also, all cards or advertise-
ments must come in at the same time, so that we will not be delayed in issuing
promptly, and as early after the returns come in as possible. Most of the chang-
es in business in the South and West take place about the first of January. ' We
set the 15th so as to give time to our Agents.
We do not ask for a general list from any town or city, where there is a City
Directory already published, in such towns and cities we only take subscribers
and cards.
,^^* All Clerks of Courts to whom we send our circular, and who respond
by sending us a list as above, will be entitled to a copy of our work with their
card of office inserted. They are also authorised agents to procure and forward
cards of subscribers. We will be much pleased to have each class of business
names arranged together in alphabetical order.
^^^ Wriie every name correctly and^in a very plain hand.

MR. PEARSON,
Sir, — Gratitude and justice demand that I should certify to the value of your
EheumaUc Sditf, I was, for about one year, so aJffiLicted in my right arm and
shoulder, that I was unable to dress myself, or even to put m^ hand to my head.
I finally was taken in my left foot, disabling me from walMng without assist-
ance. In the meantime, I had tried all the usual remedies to no good eJQTect,
and was at the point of despairing of ever obtaining relief. Your Rheumatic
Rdief was just then beginning to be noticed as performing some wonderful
cures ; I immediately sent for a bottle of it, and with three rubbings only, to
the surprise and joy of my family and myself, I wa9 cured, and have not had
occasion to use it since. E. A. GITSINGER.
CharUgtcn, 8, C, Deeembet 20, 1854.
' Many others, equally satisfactory, might be given if we had room.
